Initially, the boys attempt to establish a
    civil society on the uninhabited tropical island by voting for a chief and organizing
    themselves. As chief,initially establishes rules regarding the conch and creates a signal fire
    on the top of the mountain, while stressing the importance of being rescued. Ralph also divides
    necessary duties among the boys, which they gradually begin to neglect. Unfortunately, Ralph
    fails to punish disobedience, and there are no consequences for breaking the rules like there
    are in an effective criminal justice system. Offenders likewould be punished and stripped of
    their leadership roles in an effective justice system. However, Ralph fails to enforce the rules
    by establishing consequences, and civility eventually deteriorates.
As the
    story progresses, the boys become less concerned with following Ralph's directives and develop a
    reverence for Jack, who is a successful hunter. Onceclaim that they witnessed a beast on the top
    of the mountain, chaos quickly ensues as boys rapidly descend into savagery. The majority of the
    boys join Jack's tribe of savages at the opposite end of the island and follow their primitive
    instincts. The savages become obsessed with hunting and eventually begin acting violently toward
    each other. The boys murderon the beach after mistaking him for the beast;brutally kills ; and
    the boys hunt Ralph. In an environment with no rules, consequences, or punishments, civilization
    cannot exist, and the boys revert back to their primitive nature.
