Gilligan's Island & the Enlightenment

 

You are stranded on Gilligan's Island. Who gets to make the rules?”

You aren't just trying to survive. You're trying to create a society.

There is no government.
There is no police force.
There is no court.
There is no constitution.
There is no telephone.

There is no way to contact the outside world.


What happens next?

Who would have the most power?



Someone has to decide how the food will be distributed.
Who decides?
What rules should exist?
Who enforces the rules?
What happens if someone breaks them?
Does everyone get an equal amount?
Does the person doing the most work get more?
Does the person who found the food get more?
Can someone refuse to follow the rules?
