Published in the 19th century, Spooner advocates for the essential role of juries in protecting individual rights and ensuring justice against government tyranny. He argues that the jury is not merely a procedural element but a fundamental mechanism of democracy, empowering citizens to participate directly in the administration of justice.Spooner meticulously critiques the limitations and corruptions of the legal system, asserting that the jury's independence is vital for safeguarding personal liberty. His passionate defense of juries as a bulwark against oppression resonates with modern discussions about civil rights and governmental power.
