Topic: Why do things fall apart in Lord of The Flies?
Within the business scheme, our personal lives and civilization itself, things every now and then tend to fall apart. Thus, the reason why we have policies in the business scheme, individual identity within our personal lives and supervision within civilization. Without them our world would become a chaotic and uncivilized environment, similar to the novel. Hence, the reason why things fell apart in Lord of The Flies.
The need for civilization and order is crucial when people are given the opportunity of dominance and freedom. Laws are there to keep the darker side of human nature in line, allow things to run smoothly and evidently to not to exceed to the point where people become power hungry, merely like Roger, Jack and some of the other characters in the novel. When all elements of civilization disappeared on the island, they boys reverted to a more ancient part of their nature, and they turned into savages and tyrannical substitutes of democracy. Society holds everyone together, therefore without laws and sequence, the boy’s morals, values of life and basic ideas of what is right and wrong are ancient history, and the savageness of human nature transpire.
