This story is a great way to explain human society. It is as simple at the norms that the Andres survivors made up. First on one had to eat human flesh and no one would force them. It is their choice and that has to do with today in society everyone has choices. Second some bodies where off limits. In today society there are limits and rules we need to follow in everyday life. Third the meat was rationed. In todays society everything is rationed. Lastly, the meat was distributed according to an orderly system. Again in today society everything is made for different people. This all explains human life and reality is socially constructed.
