The debate between Federalists and Anti-Federalists primarily took place during the ratification of the United States Constitution in the late 1780s. It unfolded in various public forums, including state ratifying conventions, newspapers, and pamphlets, where each side presented its arguments. Federalists, favoring a strong central government, and Anti-Federalists, advocating for states' rights and individual liberties, engaged in vigorous discussions across the nation. Key documents, like the Federalist Papers, were also instrumental in articulating Federalist perspectives.
Answer on E2020:The Federalists created a system of checks and balances in the government. This system limited the power of the various branches of government so that one branch could not take all the power and become tyrannical. Each branch was also able to 'check' the powers of the other branches, so that no branch could act alone.

Federalists wanted the constitution. They supported Federalism (if you couldn't already tell from their label). Antifederalists opposed the Federalist views. They believed that the constitution took to much power from the states and thought it did not guarantee people's rights.
Federalists were for a strong federal government and didn't think that the Bill of Rights is necessary for the government to run without corruption. Anti-federalists thought that the Constitution didn't properly protect their rights like a Bill of Rights would do. However, in the end the Federalists let the anti-federalists have the Bill of Rights.

The anti-federalists did not criticize America's new constitution as much as were opposed to it. They were opposed to the concept of central, federal governance; instead they believed that each of state needed to be be strong because they are a bit suspicious about concentrating all the power into one, central government. They were concerned that the Constitution was mostly crafted by the upper-class and thus would minimize the influence of the common people and the poor.The anti-federalists were the first to raise the concern that the lack a Bill of Rights would take away the people’s right to freedom of speech and religion; however their concerns were reduced with the inclusion of the Bill of Rights.
