PrepTest 126 - Section 4 - Question 20

Show summary

Support People who have specialized knowledge about a scientific or technical issue are systematically excluded from juries for trials where that issue is relevant. █████ █████ ██ ████ ██ ███ █ ████ █████ ██ ████████ ████████ █████████ ████ ███████

Summarize Argument

The author concludes that trial by jury isn’t a fair way to settle disputes involving scientific or technical issues. This is because people with specialized knowledge of these issues are excluded from juries in cases involving such disputes.

Notable Assumptions

The author believes that trials are unfair if people with relevant knowledge of specialized issues are systematically excluded from sitting on juries in those trials. This means the author assumes that specialized knowledge on the part of jurors is necessary to settle disputes fairly in such trials, and that having specialized knowledge wouldn't bias jurors one way or another.
