Human nature developed in this social context. Only ten thousand years ago‚ they began to live in the villages

Marketing Management Psychological Pricing Rodrigo Fernández-Romero. 20th March 2010.

Psychological egoism claims that people do only act in their self-interest. Ethical egoism is the normative ethical stance that people ought to do what is in their self-interest. Although similar‚ the two beliefs are not compatible because ethical egoism‚ in order to be significant‚ must claim that people can be altruistic; otherwise it would make no sense to say that people should be selfish.

Golding uses children to make a point about human nature. The question Golding wants the audience to answer is whether human nature is good or evil when it’s left to develop freely. The best way to show this was to have children‚ who haven’t grasped the meaning of moral values‚ live on their own and find out how to survive and make a civilization without knowing the basics of right and wrong.

transition into insanity. Golding once stated the theme of this book as “an attempt to trace the defects of society back to the defects of human nature”. Lord of the Flies uses the analogy of the civilization run by children to portray the idea that because humans desire power and wish to satisfy their own needs above others‚ society cannot fully function. The natural human desire to possess power and control is shown very early on in the book‚ starting when Ralph and Jack quarrel over which one of them
