In a large republic there are men of large fortunes, and consequently of less moderation; there are trusts too great to be placed in any single subject; he has interest of his own; he soon begins to think that he may be happy, great and glorious, by oppressing his fellow citizens; and that he may raise himself to grandeur on the ruins of his country.—brutus no. 1 which model of representative democracy does brutus warn against in this excerpt?

Federalism.

Explanation:

Brutus is the pseudonym of Robert Yates (1738-1801), an American politician known for his anti-federalist views. On his Brutus’ Anti-Federalist No. 1 essay of 1787, Yates argued against the proposed constitution of the United States, which sought to establish a federal republic, with the states united in a single republic under a central government.

Brutus's main concern was that by subjecting the states to a federation, this central government may grow too large and powerful. This power could then be used arbitrarily and for the benefit of a select few: "there are trusts too great to be placed in any single subject; he has interest of his own; he soon begins to think that he may be happy, great and glorious, by oppressing his fellow citizens; and that he may raise himself to grandeur on the ruins of his country."
