What were the authors of federalist papers opposed to?

The Federalist Papers are a series of documents/ letters published in newspapers in various major cities. They are indirectly opposed to the Anti-Federalist Papers, each Federalist Paper was written to answer questions the public had. The goal of the Federalist Papers was to convince people to ratify the constitution. The Federalists wanted a strong Federal government and the Anti-Federalist wanted strong State governments. Some of the Federalist Papers were written as a direct rebuttal of a particular Anti-Federalist writing. Some Federalist writings had no direct connection to Anti-Federalist writings, although there are few of these. You have to remember that the Federalist Papers and Anti-Federalist writings are published over almost 2 years.Take a look at the timeline in Relate Links below.If you get a copy of The Anti-Federalist Papers and the Constitutional Convention Debates from Signet Classic, they have a very concise and efficient chart on page 27, giving the subject and which Federalist and Anti-Federalist writings apply.

Who is one of the authors of the federalist papers?

James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay all wrote under the name Publius, latin for "public" I think. All of the essays they wrote were later put together and called the "Federalist Papers". I know James Madison played a major role in drafting and ratifying the Constitution, which was the main subject of the Federalist Papers, but I don't know if the Papers had a principal author.
