Factions were what we know as political parties where everyone involved in one faction has the same beliefs, interests and passions which makes them very difficult to eliminate. This is due to the fact that the remedies that were thought up in order to eliminate them only would backfire. For example, it states in Federalist paper #10 that, "There are two methods of curing the mischiefs of faction: the one, by removing its causes; the other, by controlling its effects." However, we can conclude that removing its causes is not an option and therefore the only way to eliminate a faction is to control its effects.
2. If factions cannot be removed then how can they be controlled? The only way to control a faction is to try and get everyone involved in the faction to believe a persuasive government in an agreement on one decision with no opposition whatsoever.
