By imagining a society without the state, post-apocalyptic narratives are able to explore concerns about current forms of governance and social control. The post-apocalyptic narrative is particularly relevant in a post-9/11 society where public concerns about security and governance are prominent. In this study, I examined the potential allegorical function of the zombie narrative found in Robert Kirkman’s The Walking Dead.

Home* The October, 1880 election for state officers was im- portant to the Democratic party in Indiana, and the Novem- ber, 1880 presidential election in the Hoosier State was doubly important to the national fortunes of the party. Yet the Democracy lost both of these political contests by narrow margins of less than 8,000 votes in a total count of approxi- mately 470,000.1 This occurred despite the fact that in early September of 1880 the state had appeared to key observers as safely Democratic.2 Why did these defeats materialize? Literate and vocal participants, as well as historians, have offered a myriad of explanations about the elements, issues, and mistakes which contributed to this debacle. Stress usually has been placed on national factors : e.g., the supposed political ineptitude of the Democratic presidential candidate, General Winfield Scott Hancock ; the unfortunate appearance of the phrase “a tariff for revenue only” in the party platform; the general disorganization and anarchy within the party following the loss of the disputed election of 1876; and the *Albert V.
