The chief worry of the Antifederalists was that the states would lose influence with the growth in the national government’s power Federalists: Favored Antifederalists: Opposed A CONSTITUTION ESTABLISHING A STRONG CENTRAL GOVERNMENT

Local control was key to Antifederalist concept of democracy. This issue would boil up in states’ rights fights in 1800s Federalists argued that Senate (with two representatives per state) adequately represented state interests Federalists: Opposed Antifederalists: Favored EMPOWERING THE 13 STATES

The absence of a Bill of Rights in the original Constitution was seen as a real threat to individual citizens’ liberties by the Antifederalists Federalists: Opposed Antifederalists: Favored BILL OF RIGHTS

Antifederalists thought the Articles needed to be amended, not abandoned. Federalists thought the Articles were ineffectual as a governing document. Congress’ power was limited to requesting cooperation from states. Federalists: Opposed Antifederalists: Favored ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION

No experiment in democracy on a scale of America had ever been attempted Federalists thought a large republic was seen as the best protection for individual freedoms Antifederalists envisioned a small republic that could protect individual rights Federalists: Favored Antifederalists: Opposed EXPANSION OF THE NATION

Federalists: Favored Antifederalists: Opposed A CONSTITUTION ESTABLISHING A STRONG CENTRAL GOVERNMENT

Large farmers, merchants, and artisans Small farmers, often from rural areas Only a few men of wealth joined the Antifederalist cause FederalistsAntifederalists POLITICAL SUPPORTERS
