Question

In the summer of 1788, George Washington predicted that the ideas in the Federalist Papers "will merit the notice of

posterity [future generations], because in (the papers) are candidly and ably discussed the principles of freedom and the
topics of government, which will always be interesting to mankind so long as they shall be connected with civil society."
Washington was right. Even today people debate the appropriate balance of power between
the federal government and
state governments. And the Federalist Papers remain meaningful to such debates. What do you think are some of the
issues that Federalists and Anti-Federalists were discussing in 1788 that people still care about today?

Answer 1

The Anti-Federalists feared that the concentration of power in the hands of the federal government would threaten the power of individuals and state governments. This concern is still important to people who feel that maintaining individual rights is the highest priority. Some people believe states better represent their interests than the nation as a whole. Like the Anti-Federalists, some people today think the federal government has too much power.
