Anti-Federalist Papers

The Anti- Federalist Papers are a collection of articles that argued against the ratification of the Constitution of the United States of America.

Unlike the authors of the advertising for the ratification of the authors of the Federalist Papers Anti- Federalist Papers were not organized; rather, it is independent authors and publications. For this reason, there is no definitive consensus as to which items are to be among the Anti- Federalist Papers.

One of the main reasons against the constitution - which, however, was not only called by declared enemies of the Constitution - was the lack of a Bill of Rights. Although the Constitution was first ratified without the Bill of Rights, but the constitution was soon supplemented by additional articles that make up the Bill of Rights of the Constitution of the United States of America.
