The Articles provided a weak central government, where the government did not have to power to tax. It also provided little means of revision. The Constitution, on the other hand, establishes the 3 branches, and more importantly, a constitutional government. The fundamentals of a constitutional gov’t include majority rule and minority rights, limited gov’t, institutional and procedural limitations on power including separation of powers, checks and balances, and due process of law.

What effects did the enlightenment philosophers have on government and society?
Lyrx [107]
The enlightenment philosopher heavily influenced government and society. Their principles which were based on reason and science, instead of religion, were incremental to the French Revolution, which borrowed aspects such as every man is born free, which helped push the French proletariat to overthrow the monarchy. The enlightenment philosophers also produced important literature such as the Encyclopedia (to cite one example), which were revolutionary texts, but also informational texts for the public.
