In Perikles, the restriction of property qualification was replaced by drawing lots, and a public office allowance system was established, which enabled more people to hold public offices, thus expanding the political rights of civilians. However, those who can enjoy this right are still a minority of residents. In about 45 1 year BC, the citizens' assembly passed Perikles's proposal, which stipulated that only people whose parents were Athenian citizens could be regarded as Athenian citizens, greatly limiting the number of citizens. Slaves, foreigners and women have no civil rights. Ten will have no salary, and this position has always been monopolized by industrial and commercial slave owners, and ordinary citizens simply cannot hold it. Many people who work for a living can't often go to Athens to attend town meetings. Therefore, the democracy in Athens is essentially the democracy of slave owners, serving the slave economy.
