Written assignment 1

Federalist essay  10, attributed to James Madison by most scholars, is perhaps the most cited by defenders of the Constitution. What are Madison's main arguments in this document? Are they persuasive? Why? Is this document still applicable to the political situation today? Why, or why not?

The answers to these questions should be addressed in a two to three page paper, in a conventional 12-point font, written with conventional one-inch margins, and turned in at the beginning of class on Thursday, September 2.
