Continuing from the last comment, about.Athenian fear, Prof. Nichols also points out Athenian hubris. They believe they have the right to enslave others. It is the same hubris of Manifest Destiny. So there is a tragic blend of two opposites, hubris and fear, which lead to Athens self-inflicted downfall. They have forgotten the Delphic maxims "Know Thyself" and "Nothing Too Much". America should take heed.
This interesting discussion points out that freedom at that time meant the ability of a city-state to make its own laws and govern itself. It was not individual freedom as we think today. However, the speakers miss one point about the Melian dialog. The Athenians say plainly that the mere fact of the freedom and independence of Melos is a danger to Athens' empire and hegemony in the Aegean. This freedom might lead subject, enslaved city states to rebel against Athenian rule. Hence the Athenian fear of a loss or diminishment of the empire could result. The independence of Melos could create a domino effect and lead to the collapse of its empire.
