AnnotationThe strengths and weaknesses of citizens' juries as a model for public involvement in health care is examined in this paper. Two citizens' juries run by the same health authority were observed during the summer of 1996. The framework used to evaluate the juries is that provided by the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) in their report `Citizens' juries: theory into practice' (1997), focusing on the themes of information, time, scrutiny, deliberation, independence and authority. Citizens' juries are compared and contrasted with other models for public involvement and linked with the broader debate on citizenship theory and practice. (AKM).
