The boys try to stick with social norms but these norms deteriorate as the story moves forward. They have meetings and try to form a semblance of a democracy. They attempt share responsibilities like keeping signal fire going, having fresh water on hand, and honoring the conch as a sign that everybody has a right to be heard.
