Explore the different types of leadership Golding and Garland present E

Explore the different types of leading Golding and Garland present in Lord of the Flies and The Beach.In Lord of the Flies and The Beach many lead qualities arshown. These qualities are shown in different ways for example iodineleader is elected by democracy, another is self-appointed and lastlythere is the destructive leader. Lord of the Flies was written in1954. A time when commercialisation was not an issue and media hypeonly had subtle effects of society. The Beach was written in 1996,American globalisation has begun and the media played a massive separatein society. I will look at how the different time may uphold the wayin which a leader reacts.The most limpid resemblance between the novels is the setting and theisolation of the islands yet there is a differentiation in that theboys in Lord of the Flies are stranded and are forced to try andsurvive where they dont really want to be. The Characters in TheBeach have chosen to be isolated in such surroundings and dont wa ntto leave. For them it is not a matter of survival. In both novels theleadership and order of their close-knit communities is similar, theway both societies ethics decline and the introduction of violentbehaviour is the start of their destruction. Although they bareresemblance they are very different. I will look at how the leadersaffect this.Firstly I will look at what bedevils a good leader, I will then look ateach disposition in turn and establish the different types of leadershipGolding and Garland present in Lord of the Flies and The Beach. Whatmakes a good leader? It has been said that some are born with theright qualities and some develop them. Whether nature or nurture agood leader should alwa... ...le attributes for a leader onlythis is the only leadership quality Jed holds.In conclusion, I believe that Sal was the most suitable leaderalthough being selfish at heart, all she cared about was the beach,which in effect was a good thing. Bugs simply did as Sal said so Idou bt in a tough situation alone Bugs would be able to make calm andgood decisions. Richard obviously is not really a contender for anytype of leadership because of his childishness and uncaring nature.After comparing and analyzing the leadership in both novels I haveevidence to believe that a personality such as Ralphs would always bebest for a leadership placement. He is compassionate, forward thinkingand loyal. Both novels show mans natural instinct to resort todestructive violence, Ralph is the only exception to this and is themost focused character from both novels.
