We ALL know Thucy's version of why it happened, but there appear to be a LOT of modern sources that disagree, one of them even outrightly saying that "Thucydides is quite wrong..."

Reasons suggested are the rivalry between Athens and Corinth (since when did Corinth become so competitive?!?!?!)
Corinth
Corinth
And yes, Corinth seems to be the cause, supported by Corinth's statement of "Do not drive us in despair to seek another alliance".

What's your take on this?!
