The symbol of the conch has changed from something that represented survival and cooperation to something that represents power and dominance and chaos. The conch now may lead the new society to its downfall. When discussing what needs to happen and recieving some dissaproval from the rest of the boys, Ralph says, "Now I say this and make this a rule, because I'm chief" By saying "because I'm chief", Ralph is trying to establish his dominance over the rest of the boys. The conch is the reason that he was ever voted chief and now he has used that power to have complete control over the boys. Soon afterwards Jack counters his idea and dissaproves of his vision and Ralph states, "You voted me chief. Now you do what I say." He is using the power that the conch gave him to control the boys and get dominance over the boys.

Ralph's assembly establishes order, and then later chaos. When Ralph blows the conch, "the others were waiting for this and came straight away." The fact that they 'were waiting' shows order because they were expecting an assembly. During Ralph's assembly, someone says "too many things." This shows that people think that Ralph's dominance is not a good thing. The island quickly erupts in chaos.
