Explain the basis for antifederalists’ fears that the government would “fall into the hands of the few and the great.” how does the constitution address these fears?

The fears of the Anti-Federalists arose because the new federal government would have supremacy of the states when it came to legislation--making the Anti-Federalists believe that it would become a tyrannical body. The Constitution tried to put these fears to rest by implementing a system of "checks and balances", wherein no single federal body could become too powerful.
