Best Answer

Since Madison wrote many of the Federalist Papers, I would venture to assume he "authorized" them. Thomas Jefferson was also very much in favor of the ratification of the Constitution, which was the primary purpose of the Federalist Papers, and so I would say he was in favor of publication, too. Although Jefferson did disagree with some of the individual papers, most notably #84 which argued against the Bill of Rights.
