To understand the debate properly requires attention to opposing Antifederalist arguments against the Constitution, and this new and authoritative student-friendly edition presents in full all eighty-five Federalist papers written by the pseudonymous 'Publius' (Hamilton, Madison, and Jay), along with the sixteen letters of 'Brutus', the prominent but still unknown New York Antifederalist who was Publius's most formidable foe. Each is systematically cross-referenced to the other, and both to the appended Articles of Confederation and US Constitution, making the reader acutely aware of the cut-and-thrust of debate in progress. The distinguished political theorist Terence Ball provides all of the standard series editorial features, including brief biographies and notes for further reading, making this the most accessible rendition ever of a classic of political thought in action. 410 0$aCambridge texts in the history of political thought. 606 $aConstitutional history$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1783-1789 615 0$aConstitutional history 676 $a342.73/029 702 $aHamilton$b Alexander$f1757-1804, 702 $aMadison$b James$f1751-1836, 702 $aJay$b John$f1745-1829, 702 $aBall$b Terence 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450132503321 996 $aThe federalist$91999844 997 $aUNINA
