To assume, as Beard so commonly does, that the fear of the misuse of power by majorities was either peculiar to the Federalists

or more ardent with them than with their opponents, is mistaken. Indeed it was rather the anti-Federalists who were most deeply disturbed by the prospect of majority rule; they, rather than the Federalists, were the “men of little faith.”
Can someone paraphrase Please thank you.

Answer:

It is wrong to assume that the Federalists were more critical of the possibility of abuses of power by a government that the Anti-Federalists, just as Beard often does. Actually, the Anti-Federalists saw the likelihood of undemocratic majority rule with deeper concern than the Federalists did. If we were going to call someone "men of little faith" with fairness, it would be the Anti-Federalists and not the Federalists.

I n t r o d u c t i o nHan Fei (d. 233 BCE) was a student of the philosopher Xunzi (c. 310-c. 219 BCE), but abandoned Confucian philosophy in favor of the more pragmatic and hardheaded approach of men like Lord Shang (Shang Yang or Gongsun Yang, d. 338 BCE), whom we collectively label as “Legalists.” Han Fei worked as an official for the state of Qin until he was executed in 233 BCE, allegedly on charges manipulated by a fellow official, Li Si (d. 208 BCE), who was also formerly a fellow student under Xunzi. Han Fei is most famous, however, for having developed a thorough and systematic synthesis of Legalist and Daoist philosophy, which we see in the book which bears his name--a book of which he is possibly the real author, but which at any rate is accepted as a reasonably accurate representation of his thinking.D o c u me n t E x c e r p t s wi t h Q u e s t i o n s (Longer selection follows this section)From Sources of Chinese Tradition, compiled by Wm.
