Locate four provisions within the articles of confederation that indicate the concerns of the founding generation with powers of a central government

Articles of confederation paved way to  establish the first political structure which unified thirteen colonies. It was framed by  the first continental congress. As there were many loyalists involved in the American revolution, it was seen to that the central government was intentionally kept weak. despite these weakness which existed in the constitution, Americans attained independence which is noteworthy.

Explanation:

The purpose of the article of confederation was to create a confederation of states which has unique powers than the federal government. The Federal government was given the powers to make treaties with foreign countries, establish a foreign policy, manage native american affairs and coin money. But it was given the constitutional authority to execute laws , levy taxes, could not draft soldiers and rise an army or regulate trade and commerce.

Some weaknesses of articles of confederation was that it did not empower the central government to enforce any laws, there was an absence of apex court and states were given highest powers to execute laws and levy taxes. this weakness led to  many arguments among the states governments. Each state in fact maintained its own militia and signed foreign policies and treaties with other countries. Each state printed its own money which did not stabilize the national economy.
