About this book
Authoritative, insightful, and historically vital, The Federalist Papers present the arguments that shaped the United States Constitution. Written by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay under the name Publius, these essays explain the principles of federal government, liberty, and checks and balances. Still cited in courts and studied worldwide, the work offers a clear window into the intentions behind American democracy. Praised for its intellectual rigor and clarity, this collection remains essential for understanding constitutional law, political theory, and the foundations of modern governance.
