Theme When establishing something new, it needs some sort of foundation to begin itself. We see an example of this in William Golding’s novel, Lord Of The Flies, as the boys begin to develop a plan of action to not only survive on their own, but to maintain a sort of control for themselves that they had been used to before crashing on to the island, in chapter two. By establishing all the rules, and only being open to them with the chance of being able to punish any rule breaker, the boys begin to plan how they are going to keep themselves in order. Besides the couple of worries that Piggy brings about the whole group to worry, the boy begin to develop a plan of action to make sure that whatever doubts they have, will soon be settled (34-35). Such as building a signal fire on top of the mountain and sending out people to hunt for food so that they can eat to survive, since they have no clue as to how long it will be until someone finds them (33, 37). In the society of today, we are always looking to create something new of our own in order to start fresh and have full control over the influence it will have overall. By creating a new civilization of just young boys and no adults, they were able to make that ‘picture perfect’ civilization they have in their minds, and establish easy going rules such as only being able to speak when you are holding the conch (33). We establish rules thinking that they will benefit us for better, however sometimes that may not be the case. Things always end up coming in the way such as disagreements and rebellion, in which they can simply be handled peacefully, or violently, which is exactly what these boys where doing to maintain their idea of their perfect society.
