The Federalist Papers are a collection of articles that were
published by newspapers in New York from late
1787 - 1788. Published originally under the pseudonym
PUBLIUS, these eighty-five essays were written by
Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison
to explain the benefits of the proposed Constitution to the
people and to defend it against its many critics. At issue
was a central government binding a federation of 13 states
under a common authority and flag. There were many very
strong reservations about this proposal. The Anti-Federalists
argued that this new government would wield too much
power. They did not believe that the separation of powers
of the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branch would
protect the interests of the states from federal corruption.
They argued that such a government would wield power
just as did the tyrants and monarchs from whom the states
had so recently won their freedom. The Federalists argued
that the greatest danger to the new states was instability in
government and that this new structure would ensure
regular and peaceful relationships, a common defense, and
a cohesive foreign policy. While they were originally written
to support ratification of the Constitution in New York, the
Federalist Papers were re-printed in newspapers throughout
the colonies wherever there were strong pockets of
Federalist sentiment.
