James Madison and The Federalist
About this episode
This episode explores James Madison's contributions to The Federalist and their significance both historically and in contemporary discussions.
James Madison was one of the two primary authors of The Federalist. What ideas did he promote through his essays? Where did he disagree with the points he argued? As we consider the American Founding and try to understand how the Founders turned goals into ideas in systems, we examine Madison’s contributions to The Federalist and what they meant over 200 years ago, and what we can learn from them now.
