The boys on the island become more savage and violent as they await rescue in Willam Golding's Lord of the Flies, which illustrates how humans are mainly moved by urges towards domination and brutality over others if their conduct is not kept in check. In the beginning, the boys are respectful of the rules and each other as they are still trying to grasp the social standards of society. When the boys first fell on the island, during

Introduction Lisa Wedeen’s book “Ambiguities of Domination: Politics, Rhetoric and Symbols in Contemporary Syria” provides an explanation to how purportedly weak autocratic states maintain state power and regime stability within civic spaces.

She asserts that the political rhetoric surrounding al-Assad as a perfect and godly leader is unconvincing to Syrian citizens. The question then arises: why does the regime
