Which statement about how Federalists and the Anti-Federalists felt about the constitution are true

History
1 answer:
sattari [20]3 years ago
6 0

Anti-Federalists argued that the Constitution gave too much power to the federal government, while taking too much power away from state and local governments.   Many felt that the federal government would be too far removed to represent the average citizen.  Anti-Federalists feared the nation was too large for the national government to respond to the concerns of people on a state and local basis. The Anti-Federalists were also worried that the original text of the Constitution did not contain a bill of rights.  They wanted guaranteed protection for certain basic liberties, such as freedom of speech and trial by jury. A Bill of Rights was added in 1791.  In part to gain the support of the Anti-Federalists, the Federalists promised to add a bill of rights if the Anti-Federalists would vote for the Constitution

Federalists believed that the nation might not survive without the passage of the Constitution, and that a stronger national government was necessary after the failed Articles of Confederation. The Federalists met Anti-Federalist arguments that the new government created by the Constitution was too powerful by explaining that the document had many built-in safeguards, such as:

  • Limited Government:  Federalists argued that the national government only had the powers specifically granted to it under the Constitution, and was prohibited from doing some things at all.
  • Separation of Powers:  Federalists argued that, by separating the basic powers of government into three equal branches and not giving too much power to any one person or group, the Constitution provided balance and prevented the potential for tyranny.
  • Checks and Balances:  Federalists argued that the Constitution provided a system of checks and balances, where each of the three branches is able to check or limit the other branches.

BEST ANSWER GETS BRAINLEIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br><br> Who ruled oligarchy?
KonstantinChe [14]
Hey there!

An oligarchy is/was a powerful from of government. It was ruled by any sort of group of powerful people - aristocrats, wealthy landowners, or anyone that had lots of money, power, and influence.

Often in ancient times, they were aristocrats. They made laws that benefitted themselves and the trend was often that the poor lost more wealth, and the riched gained more - as oligarchs passed laws to benefit the rich.

Some argue that even today, countries like Russia and those that don't have a complete democratic or republican government have oligarchs, although that's always arguable.

Hope this helps!

Using what you have learned, write one to two paragraphs comparing and contrasting the rise of the nation-state in Germany and J
Verizon [17]

For Germany, the nation-state had its antecedents with Franco -Prussian war in the late 1800s and Japan in the Russia-Japanese war that lead to creating the modern nation-state. A clear example of similarities between this two models is found in that Japan set its constitution according to the German constitution. Furthermore: the public educational system in Japan also had many similarities with the German public educational system.

Nationalism was key for this purpose: it helped consolidate power for Germany and Japan as recently formed modern states, and as a result, both states became international actors posing changes and threats in the politic and economic relations of the region and eventually in the world.

Similarities:

In the case of Germany and Japan, it helped unite people with the common language and cultural background. It created a deep sense of belonging among them. Before the rise of this nation-states for the case of both, there was already a role in politics and regional- foreign trade but it wasn't until they consolidated at states that it became also a power over the region. (Germany as a fully emerged power in Europe and Japan in Asia).

Differences:

Japan had been in a isolation for a very long time under a whole different cultural system  (the Shogun) and with the emergence of the nationalism under the rule of Emperor Meiji it started to fully engage in the foreign trade that also eventually paved the way for the creation of a powerful army. (Without Japanese nationalism it would have been hard to imagine the onward expansion and intervention abroad).
