The human behavior

In the movie “Lord of the Flies” we find a lot of topics like the leadership, the power struggle, the survival, etc. Between all of them the one that more interest me is howthis group of kids, in specially the group of the “the hunters”, change the way they act and think becoming more wild (because the situation forced them to do that) and how this kids illustrated ourreality. Maybe this could not happened if there is an adult who can control them, however also could happened something worse if it had been present because the adults can take advantage of theirauthority and be concerned only about themselves. Here is some question that I make myself during the movie: Why there’s a group of boys with soldier clothes and charges like in the army? Why these parentssent their children to this kind of military school? I still don’t knowing the answer; I only can say that I’m against this. They shouldn’t send them there because almost all know that the army is akind of example of “by force rather than reason”.

By the children we see the part of the reason (Ralph) and the black part (Jack) of the human. Both of them are the two faces of the coin. In one thefaces there is Ralph who represents the society of today characterized by the democracy, the rules, the duties and the rights, in the other side there is Jack who represents all the bad things of thesociety or how were the people before becoming civilized beings. At the beginning the story is based on a peaceful government which later was fragmented and suffers a putsch where the rebels, inspecially Jack make something like an authoritarian government where who opposite him was wanted to kill him, literally. I think that one of the reasons that produce Jack’s action is the place where theywere (in a strange place without other people) and the instinct of survive. The absence of an authority produces a chaos in the boys. They don’t know what is right and what is wrong, they act...
