Well, about the social structure of the island, with no actual regulation, there'd likely be a sort of a "modern feudal system" in place, comparable to the structure of modern day real-world outfits such as South-American cartels, Yakuza, Triads and whatnot.
At the bottom rung are the prisoners who are either too weak, scared or apathetic to fight for themselves, or those with skills valuable enough to receive protection. These people provide services; scavenging, growing, crafting, brewing, drug labs and pleasure services. At street level are layers of unproven entry-level gangs trying to muscle in for a life better than that of a slave. Then there are the footsoldiers, established street gangs with enough name to run rackets and hold turf, and useful enough to carry colors. Above these gangbangers are the really dangerous groups, sort of "roof organizations", who collect the proceedings, settle disputes, hold monopolies, and compete with eachother like mob groups usually do. Here we have the Bloods and the Crips, the Bandidos and the Hell's Angels, the Kkangpae and the Yamaguchi-gumi, the Latin Kings and the Surenos, Aryans, Black Panthers, the Bratva, Nasa Strav, the Tongs, you name it.
And on the top of the pyramid would be the "original gangsters", founding and/or ruling members of each group, in their own neat little gang above all gangs of their own organization. Every gang wants to be them, either by founding their own organization, or usurping another. Fighting is still constant, as the only way to be promoted inside an organization is to be stronger, more agressive and ambitious than the group above you. And same applies to organizations; whatever the official status of relations, there will always be liberal application of boot to the head.
