Federalist Papers 85 articles that were printed in the New York Press between Oct – May 1788 under the name Publius Widely read and built public support The papers argued for ratification of the Constitution Each paper defended a section of the Constitution arguing for centralized government, separation of powers, and a republican framework Brad Read

The Main Authors er%20hamilton.jpg Alexander Hamilton (NY) Wrote roughly half of the federalist papers Supported strong executive, centralized power, and commercial economy Roland Kerner

James Madison (VA) Wrote thirty papers including the most significant one Federalist Paper No. 10 Argued that the best form of government to limit factions influence would a large republic Brad Read ordpress.com/2009/03/james_madison2.jpg

Antifederalist Feared faction as well but felt that a small republic would combat faction most effectively Worried about too much executive power and centralized government Thought there would be a disconnect between elected officials and the voters in a large republic Roland Kerner
