Havent read this book in 25 years or so. But this was a well made mini series. Only 4 episodes and was definitely worth the watch.

Book was good, although the real life event it may have been based on didnt devolve into violent tribalism. The boys basically all worked together to make a functioning settlement that could provide for their survival needs until they were rescued

Book is more metaphorical than anything

Yeah, it was meant to be and acknowledged as such.

Still funny that "society" puts forth its cautionary tale and wants to show everyone its own virtues by way of warning... yet, in reality, it is really not needed.

I think it really depends on the circumstances

In a short/mid term survival scenario, cooperation probably rules so long as there is sufficient resources

But over decades? Then it becomes more likely because you’re moving past survival to a full blown society

There's the famous Robbers Cave Experiment where two groups of boys at a camp were pitted against each other but they were kinda getting fucked with by the experimenters the entire time.

A real-life Lord of the Flies: the troubling legacy of the Robbers Cave experiment

In the early 1950s, the psychologist Muzafer Sherif brought together a group of boys at a US summer camp – and tried to make them fight each other. Does his work teach us anything about our age of resurgent tribalism?

I've read about it in a couple different books on psychology but with all the really old famous "can't do this now for ethical reasons" the confounding variables are tough to ignore. "Can we manipulate boys to fight each other oh shit it turns out we can" is not all that impressive.

Why is the bulldogs logo reversed on the kid on the far left? If the shirt was inside out, I don't think you'd still see the logo as clearly unless it was embroidered. It's hard to tell from an old B&W pic, but that looks like regular screen printing. Maybe a photoshop expert can take a close look at those pixels.

Maybe he was wearing his shirt inside out, and you could still see the lettering through a white T-shirt? Perhaps some mysteries are better left unsolved...

Too crisp. If it was silkscreened, at best you'd see a ghost image on the inside. Even with flock printing or embroidery you would only see a bunch of stitches on the inside.

Maybe they just painted the logo on, and the paint bled through the fabric, or used markers or something.

Maybe one of their dads is just good and makes signs for a living, but there's also such a miraculous device known as a stencil.

dad? This is a pic of boys who were sent to summer camp to be experimented on. You think they had dads?
