Popis The main priority of the paper is to illustrate the characteristic features and the most important objectives of Athenian "imperialism" during the last two decades of the period called Pentekontaetia (the period of fifty years- 479 -431 BC.). The author characterizes the terms "imperialism" and "empire" in the context of their application to the 5th century Athens in modern historiography, which is in author's view rather problematic and does not precisely define the true image of Athenian arche. The author's other aim is to describe how frequently and to what extent the Athenians used various kinds of policies and means of control in attempt to transform the first Athenian Naval League, also known as the Delian symmachy, into their own thalassocratic empire, and to convert their allies into their subjects. Finally, the author also focuses on the ways in which the lust for power and hegemony affected Athenian foreign policy and Athenian relationship with other Greeks, either allies or not, living in the Aegean and the eastern part of the Mediterranean.
