Inside the Contemporary Trial
Inside the Contemporary Trial
This chapter, which provides an account of contemporary trials and what is actually achieved in trials in the United States, shows that the trial combines high levels of participation with high levels of formality and explains why this combination makes sense. It also examines why so many of those who know the most about American trials hold them in such high regard and analyzes the place of the trial in the American experience.
