La particularité du jury citoyen tient au fait qu'il est composé de citoyens choisis par tirage au sort, sur le modèle d'un jury criminel, et qui n'ont donc pas d'expertise en la matière. Le but du jury citoyen est donc de donner à un groupe de citoyens «ordinaires» le pouvoir et la responsabilité de participer à un choix collectif en tant que membres d'un groupe de consultation formé expressément à cette fin. 3, record 1, French, - jury%20citoyen
