In every human being, there is a part that is definitely savage and evil as well as a part that is undoubtedly conscientious and good. These two parts are constantly in conflict with each other and consequently its outcome affects everything done and every decision made. In a civilized world, the good side often triumphs because it is reinforced by the law; however, when consequences for actions taken no longer exist, the dark side will most possibly prevail. This is clearly illustrated in Lord of the Flies, a novel written by William Goldings. After many days on a deserted island with no adults, which meant no way of enforcing authority, Jack's tribe, representing evilness and savagery, destroyed the last traces of civilization when confronted with Ralph's group, who represents law, order and democracy.
Without the enforcement of law and order, the evil side of human takes charge and the society tend to slide towards chaos and savagery. Ralph's group proved obsolete to Jack's because they were fewer in number and their fire was stolen. Jack's group, on the other hand, was in a superior position since they had access to a greater variety of food because they hunted pigs and they were a bigger group, which meant more manpower. In their confrontation, Samneric were captured and forced into Jack's tribe, an event that symbolizes the sacrifice of relatively innocent and humane members of civilized society has become part of a process of destruction. Moreover, Ralph, their democratic leader, was wounded and chased away. This symbolizes the complete deterioration of their society as the boys looked up to their savage dictating ruler and no longer had respect for democracy and sanity. With the sacrifice of Samneric and Ralph, the breakdown of a civilized society is complete.
When society breaks down, people are no longer able to think logically and intelligently to do the things that are best for everyone and most beneficial for their survival.
