The school boys were led from hope to disaster as they tried to survive in this remote island. In my opinion Lord of the Flies depict the governing methods of World War Two. Dictatorship was the leading method during this time period, which brings us to Jack, a character that displayed violence to prove his existence, and his rising power as a dictator.
