In the Confederation, states retained power of the nation, so sovereignty remained only in the states. In the Constitution, the Representatives, President, and people had more power.
They argued that the new government would provide a better balance between the national government and state governments. Hope that helps!
In order balance the competing claims of local self-government district interests and national authority, the Constitution assigns certain functions to the federal government and leaves all others to the state.
The Articles of Confederation were discarded because the state government dominated the federal government. The Articles of Confederation did not allow for the federal government to collect taxes.
If there are central and state governments, there is always a balance of power. The balance may be tilted in favour of one or the other though.
yes the constitution does permit one part of the government to check or balance another part of the government
The Articles of Confederation were made before the Constitution. The Articles of Confederation was lacking in many things such as balance between states, taxes, and how to ratify amendments. The Constitution solved all of these problems.
the balance of power between federal and states governments was unchange.
Balance of power refers to distribution of power between a central government and its subnational governments
The Articles of Confederation represented an attempt to balance the sovereignty of the states with an effective national government.
It was the first set of rules governing the early years of the United States It had flaws that cried out to be remedied in a revised scheme, that turned out to be the Constitution. The Articles had both a weak executive and a very weak national government. Rather than the Federal system which developed under the Constitution, the Articles left mostpower in the hands of the states who retained their rights to armies and taxation. The power did not actually reside in "the people" but, rather, in the states who could have their own laws and taxes and there wasn't much the central government could do about it under the Articles. Although the Constitution was careful to give powers to the Federal government, there was an amendment required by compromise that insisted that all rights not specifically granted to the Federal government was reserved to the states. Nevertheless, the Constitution provided much more of a balance and, indeed, enhancement of the power of the central (Federal) government.
The Constitution established three branches of government for a check and balance system.
