Question 1 a.One of our basic goal is to provide food and shelter to people on island. Other goals include Economic freedom, equity, efficiency and growth. Everyone on the island have equal opportunity to choose how they want to live, and where they want to use their time and how. Everyone will have equal work and good and services. As we know resources are scarce, the factors of production must be used wisely. We want to give our best to produce better things, that represent success. We want to make sure that we do everything better, so it enables people on island to have more goods and services. b.Food and meat by hunting and gathering, shelter by wood and leaves, fire for cooking and flashlight, wood for boat, plants and herbs for medicine, …show more content…
The people on island will serve as labor and natural resources available on island as capital. d.Yes, their are some basic needs that will guaranteed to all people on island, like, food, shelter, and water. e.Yes, decisions making authority lies on this island. Every week there will be one new head of group, whose approval is really important for making any new rule or decision for other people on inland. f.There is a little bit involvement of government on this island. The leader of group is going to serve as government. Their approval is really important for making any decision for the welfare of the people on island. Question 2 a. We have mixed economy on our island (an economic system in which both government and individual play important role in production and consumption) b.Everyone on the island have freedom to make their own individual choices, like how they want to live, eat and do thing, but they also need the acceptant of government/leader so everyone is safe and …show more content…
This is measure of what you must give up you get what you want most. For example, we give up fruits for water. We want both things but water is something we want the most, we can’t survive without it. We give up on building more house and prefer hunting and gathering. Question 5 Yes, we want our surrounding to be clean, healthy and friendly. We want to make sure whatever we are going is safe for us and other (it didn’t harm anyone). As we are stuck on island and we know we have limited resource (natural), but unlimited want and need. We need to make sure that whatever we are producing is what we need the most. For example, food, shelter and water. Question 6 The problem that we have to address in island is breaking rules, fighting/argument and limited resources (we want to use these resources properly, so we don’t have to face problems). If someone breaks the rules and fights, they will get punish.They have to do the work double the amount of work they used to do. They will be given less food. Question
The second idea of the island archetype is that isolation reduces humans to their most basic tendencies. The absence of law, structure, and order either leads to complete serenity, insight, and innocence, or the opposite: destruction, chaos, and confusion. In both of the stories, the latter is what occurred. One example of this from Lord of the Flies is shown in the quote “The rock struck Piggy a glancing blow from chin to knee; the conch exploded into a thousand white fragments and ceased to exist” (181). One way this shows complete chaos is how they kil...
While the boys stranded on the island begin with the basis of a plan to keep order, as time progresses, they are faced with conflicts that ultimately brings an end to their civilized ways. Initially, Ralph, the assumed leader, ran a democratic-like process on the island; however, later in the story, Jack, one of the boys, realizes that there are no longer any consequences to their wrongdoings for the reason that there was no control. This ties in with the ideal that moral behavior is forced upon individuals by civilization and when they are left on their own, they return to their fundamental instinct of savagery. Furthermore, there is a differentiation in beliefs that result in chaos due to the fact that some favored an uncultivated manner of life over an ordered structure. Opposing ideas are commonly known t...
The boys need to hold a proper election and follow the rules the chief creates. John Adams states, “No other government in the world has changed its deficits to a surplus as has the United States under the present administration” (Adams). This means that the ideal government would succeed on the island because if the government
is the cause of all of the problems that take place on the island. At
The value of sacrifice consists of having a result, accomplishment, satisfaction or relationships from what is sacrificed. Likewise, when working towards a goal there must be sacrifices to be able to accomplish it. Without the willingness to take sacrifice there will be no results. Therefore, it is important to be disposed to leave things that are not of importance or unrelated with the obtention of the goal proposed. For example, if a student wants to enter into a prestigious university he or she must be willing to dedicate her time and effort to obtain good grades, instead of spending time with friends. If the student is willing to sacrifice his or her social life, there will be a result and would likely accomplish their goal. In the end, the value of the sacrifice will be the satisfaction of the student to enter in the University of his or her dreams. In other cases, a sacrifice may imply a different purpose. Such as risking your life for another human bean like Wesley Autrey did when saving a complete stranger from what could have been a fatal incident. After Mr. Autrey saved the young man from the train, he said: “ I did what I felt was right.” In this situation the value of the sacrifice more for Mr. Autrey it means saving a men life along with his family and friends. Sacrifices strengths individuals and centers them towards a better life. The value of sacrifice is present through the course of people’s lives and makes the society grow with a
A community that has immaturity in itself leads to chaos. The immaturity on the island starts on the very first day with the boys taking of all their clothes off. Following after the clothes, Jack tries to tell Ralph what he is going to do which is hunt for pigs. Instead of the fire job Ralph gave Jack. Since, Jack is unhappy with all of Ralph’s rules, Jack creates another immature community to be chief. In the end, when Jack to tries to kill Ralph the plan backfires, and gets all of the boys rescued. Therefore,
The proposed Island Civilization way of life would require all humans, a notoriously stubborn race, to completely alter their existence. One can see by exclusively looking at the proposed population requirement that this plan could never be carried out. Mankind reproduces at a rate of ten thousand lives an hour, and shows no sign of slowing down. With a current population near seven billion, this stipulation is all but achievable. To add to the inoperable nature of this way of life, the idea of having a completely self-sufficient community with a population numbering in the millions in such a constricted area is highly unrealistic. There is simply not enough area on earth that can provide all the resources essential to human existence within such a small area restriction. This proposed solution portrays Earth as utopian society that is clearly
economic life ought to be carried out by a country's government. These notions may not
Island Civilization is an excellent idea for a science fiction movie, but as for a legitimate plan for the future of our planet the idea is simply unachievable. Roderick Nash appears to have been as optimistic about the future as possible, but he forgets the physical restrains that our planet allows. Although most of the scenarios Nash describes seem impossible, the waste land seems the most achievable from my point of view, even if people do not want to achieve this scenario.
... harvest fruits and berries and grains from the island. This will supplement the food that can be grown and harvested on the island. Everyone on the island will share the food available equally. If a point comes where there is more food than what the people can eat, at that point we will dry grains, fruit, and vegetables for use later. Even meat can be thinly sliced and smoked and dried to preserve it.
When the children become stranded on the island, the rules of society no longer apply to them. Without the supervision of their parents or of the law, the primitive nature of the boys surfaces, and their lives begin to fall apart. The downfall starts with their refusal to gather things for survival. The initial reaction of the boys is to swim, run, jump, and play. They do not wish to build shelters, gather food, or keep a signal fire going. Consequently, the boys live without luxury that could have been obtained had they maintained a society on the island. Instead, these young boys take advantage of their freedom and life as they knew it deteriorates.
to make the island as a task for all the Millan characters to find themselves.
The societal problem that occurs in the film Moana is the “chasing away” of the fish and the “draining life” from the vegetation. Maui, a demi god, committed thievery of the heart of an island goddess named Te Fiti. The heart is the creation of life and his stealing of the heart causes a curse to lose life. Much like most crimes in modern society there is a negative trickle-down effect. Stealing Te Fiti’s heart awoke Te Ka, a demon of earth and fire, creating darkness and environmental degradation over the land. Over time that darkness spreads to Moana’s home village of Motunui and depletes the supply of fish and spoils the coconut and banana trees. Without fish and the coconut trees there is no main source of food and the tribe will face food insecurity and hunger without any intervention. Not only do the coconut trees provide for sustenance they provide hydration from its coconut water, the materials necessary to weave baskets and cook meat from its leaves, create nets from its fibers and fish traps from its bark. A lack of food also means starvation to the animals that inhibit the island. The people of the tribe also use bird feathers to create tribal wear.
