Lecture 11: Although Solon and Pisistratus paved the way for Athens to become a full democracy, it was the aristocratic leader Cleisthenes who devised the democratic system under which Athens flourished for two centuries. In this lecture we examine the conditions under which democracy came into being. We then look in detail at the complex system set in place by Cleisthenes. By creating new tribal and local divisions, he forever weakened the aristocratic hold on Athenian politics.
We will review some of the major interpretations that have been advanced to explain the Cleisthenic system.
