"Essay on Jurors" is the work of the prominent American anarchist Lysander Spooner, which was published in 1852. The book analyzes the history of jury trials and their role in the legal system, pointing out the importance of this tool in protecting human rights against rather arbitrary court sentences.
Spooner argues persuasively that juries should have the right to convict not only criminal acts themselves, but also the very laws that violate civil rights. The author examines the judicial process in detail, gives examples from practice and enables readers to understand the essence of jury judges from the point of view of guarantees of justice.
"Essay on jurors" is an important and relevant work that encourages discussion of the role of citizens in the legal system and reflection on the fairness of court verdicts.
