abstract
  • Publius argues that rebellion is always a possibility with any government. In a Union, if the rebellion is small the state government may deal with it, but if insurrection involves an entire state then the national government must respond. If, on the other hand, the national government usurps power and betrays the people then the state governments are in a better position to oppose the national government, being fully fledged governments in their own right and led by experienced men. The people may choose which government best upholds their rights and concerns, the national or the state government, and thereby determine the outcome of a conflict. The great geographical extent of the Union provides a defense against the usurpations of the national government. Also, the limited resources available to the national army make it unlikely that it would grow large enough to erect a despotism.
