Describing two strong reasons supporting the view

Reference no: EM133265664

Question: The Framers of the Constitution thought that liberty would be advanced by a diffusion of government power, both between the federal government and the states among the three branches of the federal government.

In Federalist No. 51, Madison defends this diffusion of powers inherent in federalism and separation of powers as providing additional security for the people's liberties by impeding attempts to concentrate power in a single institution.

Contemporary reasons for and against decentralization continue to influence public opinion about how much power should be wielded by the national government.

Pretend you were one of the Framers and James Madison asked your opinion before he completed Federalist No. 51.

Write Mr. Madison a letter describing two strong reasons supporting the view that local autonomy promotes liberty, and two strong reasons in support of stronger federal power to promote liberty.

Feel free to use modern-day examples to support your points.
