    In this video Heimler walks you through the next foundational document for AP Government: Federalist 10.
    This document comes from a series of essays published by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay which argued for the ratification of the U.S. Constitution. Their arguments were over against the Anti-Federalists who argued that the new Constitution consolidated too much power in the hands of the federal government.
    In Federalist 10 Madison explores one of the chief enemies of liberty: factions.

      We neglected to apply these principles to populations as they grew larger. Many counties that had 2000 people when Madison was alive now have nearly as many people as the whole original 13 colonies combined....and yet they never had the same restrictions placed upon them. In this way, power was slowly gathered in urban centers over the rest of the state, and the number of interests represented by that state therein shrunk. This reached a head in the early 1900's, when the 17th amendment was ratified and this state of affairs was applied to the whole nation. The 10th amendment was permanently de-fanged, and the policies of Wilson and FDR soon followed.

    James Madison more stressed that the common cause for factions was various and unequal distributions of property and that economic stratification was inevitable so a large republic has to have checks to prevent factions as opposed to setting up a government that can deal with the problems of class conflict and economic stratification.
    The rights of a minority he may have been concerned with might have been the rights of private property - since we know that the founding of the American constitution limited rights for any non-white, non-property-owning individual. Madison's emphasis on controlling the effects of factions rather than eliminating their causes can be interpreted as an acknowledgment of the persistent nature of class conflict within a new capitalist society.

      It did work for a time, there may have been two political blocks but they were limited in the damage they could wrought on liberty by the numerous different interests they answered to in their home states.
      Where it started going wrong was when we neglected to apply these principles to populations as they grew larger. Many counties that had 2000 people when Madison was alive now have nearly as many people as the whole original 13 colonies combined....and yet they never had the same restrictions placed upon them.

    • @GordonMcWilliams
      @GordonMcWilliams 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's more about the intentions of Madison and the founding fathers and what government they want to create. A key point left out in this video (probably not pertinent to the test) is that Madison and other federalist writers believed that economic stratification was a primary cause for factions to arise. While we know that they were not too concerned for personal individual liberties they do stress the right to private property. You'll recall that the original formation of this state and republic was limited to white, male, property owners.
      He was not worried about too many parties, he actually thought there would be more parties, the faction he was worried about was the faction that would try to bring about an end to private property.
      Madison's argument for a large republic as a means to dilute the influence of any single faction can thus be seen as a strategy to protect the rights of a minority-specifically, the minority of property owners-from the potential tyranny of the majority. This perspective aligns with the broader constitutional framework of the United States, which included various mechanisms designed to safeguard the interests of the wealthy and powerful, such as the Electoral College and the Senate, which disproportionately represented the interests of the smaller, less populous states where the elite had significant control.

      @asbergledooglepoof5545 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      @asbergledooglepoof5545 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      (Oops I wasn’t done typing lmao)
      The shay’s rebellion was seen a threat to democracy because it showed how easily the poor/working class could unify against the rich and how willing they were to do so. It also pointed out how little power they had to intimidate them back into submission. In this essay I will show(?) that the “democracy” the federalists created was one that suited the rich through analysis of historical events throughout American history and the Civil rights movement as well as texts such as the federalist papers and the US Constitution…(and I will hilight how this is what their intended purpose)
      The tyranny of the mob is the democracy of the people.

    Factions in general George Washington, and now apparently James Madison as well, were against the formation and practice of factions; again that being political parties.

  • @jasononeal

    You completely skipped the part of Federalist 10 which identified the "most common and durable source of factions has been the various and unequal distribution of property." Madison was advocating for a government that would protect the propertied classes from the power of the majority of the poorest class, "A landed interest, a manufacturing interest, a mercantile interest, a moneyed interest, with many lesser interests, grow up of necessity in civilized nations, and divide them into different classes, actuated by different sentiments and views."
