No, the Federalist Papers were written in 1787-1788, after the Framers signed the Constitution, but before enough states had ratified the Constitution so it could replace the Articles of Confederation.

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.
