Abstract
Hyo-seok LeeIn William Golding's Lord of the Flies, the two representative modern political systems of democracy and totalitarianism seem to use the same strategy of image politics to govern people. Ralph and Jack, the two heroes in the novel, who represent democracy and totalitarianism by turns, are the agents of the modern English society. They alternately become the representative of the boys, which means that they 'are' making real the middle-class ideology of the modern Britain, such as civilization, justice, parliamentary government, etc.Democratic and rational Ralph and Piggy construct and guide the semi-English government in the island in terms of free election, assembly, and discussion. Although Ralph's survival of Jack's attack and his restoration to the leadership by the naval officer seem to prove that justice is not dead in the world, it only says that Ralph's governing is a kind of politically operational simulacrum. Jack demonstrates how the mechanism of control of a given society exerts itself upon its people through simulacra of terror. The invisible and unsubstantial beast is a means for Jack to become another chief of the boys. His cunning manipulation of the image of beast to get and keep his power is done mainly through terror which, in turn, makes the governed boys a kind of monster that chases Ralph to a near death. The terrified becomes the terrible; which is the ironic consequence of totalitarian despotism.
