The arguments against ratification appeared in various forms, by various authors, most of whom used a pseudonym. Collectively, these writings have become known as the Anti-Federalist Papers. They contain warnings of dangers from tyranny that weaknesses in the proposed Constitution did not adequately provide against, and while some of those weaknesses were corrected by adoption of the Bill of Rights, others remained.

These papers mark a moment in history when debates raged, passions ran wild, and the United States constitution was eventually ratified by the entire union. The Federalist Papers include all 85 articles that advocated to have the United States constitution ratified. The driving forces of the constitution (and authors of the papers) were James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay.

Anti-Federalist Papers is the collective name given to works written by the Founding Fathers who were opposed to or concerned with the merits of the United States Constitution of 1787. Starting on 25 September 1787 (8 days after the final draft of the US Constitution) and running through the early 1790s, these anti-Federalists published a series of essays arguing against a stronger and more energetic union as embodied in the new Constitution. Although less influential than their written counterparts, The Federalist Papers, these works nonetheless played an important role in shaping the early American political landscape and in the passage of the US Bill of Rights.

Understanding ASEAN’s Role in Asia-Pacific Order (Critical Studies of the Asia-Pacific)

PALGRAVE~MACMILLAN

Review\n“To the rather tired debate about ASEAN’s effectiveness, Yates’ analysis of the Association as the 'conductor' of a 'regional orchestra' contributes new understanding about ASEAN’s social functions in the broader regional order. It sheds important light on ASEAN’s long-standing role in negotiating normative and institutional frameworks for rule-governed interaction in East Asia, but crucially, a role constituted within a division of labour with the great powers. This is a fine example of the value of research that brings conceptual tools to bear upon rich empirical material in a fruitful manner.” (Evelyn Goh, Professor, The Australian National University, Australia) 
“Yates has written an important and timely book that sheds light on ASEAN’s role in managing order in the Asia Pacific. The book provides a compelling analysis of how ASEAN and the great powers have negotiated their respective order-managing roles; it is a must read for IR theorists as well Asian specialists seeking to locate ASEAN’s agency in constructing regional order.” (Yuen Foong Khong, Li Ka Shing Professor of Political Science, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, NUS, Singapore)\nThis book assesses the important role of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in the management of regional political, security and economic relations. The author argues that ASEAN’s prominent role in the region, spanning 50 years, is largely due to the acquiescence of the great powers who endorsed ASEAN, accepted its regional position and accorded the institution a legitimacy and durability that, otherwise, it would not have. This text offers a key intervention into the debate regarding ASEAN and regional order by showing how ASEAN’s contribution to order management is part of a negotiated division of labour with the great powers. The author applies an innovative social roles analysis, which captures the dynamic interactions between ASEAN and the great powers from the Cold War to the present day.\nFrom the Back Cover\nThis book assesses the important role of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in the management of regional political, security and economic relations.
