Pericles ideal democracy is he wanted more people to participate .
Are you able to help me answer the questions.
Possibly. First of all, though, I need to know what YOU THINK Pericles' definition of "ideal democracy" was.
Pericles believed that the people should represent equality at all levels and he worked to ensure that every Athenian had land and some link to their state and its government. Power rested in the hands of all those who made the state’s business their business and the only way to ensure that the people cared for the state was to ensure that they had a vested interest in the state.
Now ... that's what he believed democracy SHOULD BE, right?
Are you clear on what democracy really was in 5th century Athens?

Do you know the answer to what do the above thesis statements have in common?
Have you read the thesis statements?
Make two lists, one for each of those statements. Each list should include ONLY their similarities. I'll get you started:
#1 - Athens does not live up to Pericles ideal democracy ...
(What else will you add to this list?)
#2 - Athens somewhat lives up to Pericles ideal democracy ...
(What else will you add to this list?)
Do you know the answers to the questions I read the thesis statements but I don't understand the questions and in the instructions it doesn't say to make a list it says to answer the questions.
