For countries that have juries now, the definition is so obvious that maybe it's "under the radar". It goes like this: Take power away from the people on the jury. Give that power to a judge. It's more centralized. I guess I could say "by parsing the original statement" rather than "by definition."
I didn't say that juries/no juries is a test, by itself, for authoritarianism. It's not. For countries that do fine without juries, apparently the trade-off of giving power to the judge is working fine. Given everything else in the whole system. But the rest of us don't have that whole system.
