Although most of the Federalist Papers were written by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison wrote two of the most famous; numbers 10 and 51. In the tenth paper, Madison starts by claiming that a Union that is well built can control the dangers started by factions. Madison defines faction as; any group of citizens who, at the expense of others, develop their beliefs or economic interests.
Among them are: to protect the rights of minority interests (not in the sense of race but in the sense of vested interest in various issues), to promote greater understanding, to encourage compromise where compromise would be beneficial.
In the United States, there are factions. Although they are not typically called faction but instead are called special interest groups.
Modern day factions are everywhere in the present. Factions and their ideals run today's society, especially secret societies, powerful factions that can manipulate everything in world affairs. These secret societies are the mostly known as the Freemasons, the Trialateral Commision, and the most notoriuos, Bilderburg. Now back to the main subject: the following are some of major modern factions currently existing. (The UN, the WTO, the NSA, DOD, CIA, al-Queda, Hezzbolah, etc.)
Democracy, then factions are no longer a concern since theoretically the biggest one will always be the Government.
They are divisive and create disunity.
Factions
Madison's solution for controlling the effects of factions was the establishment of a republican government. He argued that the powers wielded by the factions be constitutionally limited.
Factions
Internal conflict.
Removing the causes of mischief or controlling the effects of the mischief.
removing the factions causes means taking away its liberty or its freedom and getting rid of them. controlling its effects means controlling its powers. In order for you to better understand what this means, you should probably look into what factions are more and getting a good understanding of them.

James Madison wrote about his concern regarding factions in his famous essay, "The Federalist No. 10." He believed that factions, or groups of individuals united by a common interest or opinion, were a natural and inevitable part of human nature. Madison argued that the danger of factions lied in their potential to oppress the rights of others or undermine the public good, but that a large and diverse republic with multiple factions could help control their effects through a system of checks and balances.
There are some ways to control political factions and to restrict their influence on the larger society. One is the principle of majority rule. Another is the creation of large republics that can "refine and enlarge" the views of the public, which gives more people a voice regardless of faction.
