Best Answer

Anti-Federalists were the precursor to the Democratic-Republican party lead by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. They originally called themselves anti-Federalists because they opposed that party's political ideology.

The Federalists controlled the US government in the first decade after the Constitution was ratified, but began to fall out of favor around the turn of the 19th century when Thomas Jefferson defeated John Adams in the 1800 Presidential election.

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.
