  • The Emergence and Development of the Sentient Zombie: Zombie
    The Emergence and Development of the Sentient Zombie: Zombie Monstrosity in Postmodern and Posthuman Gothic Kelly Gardner Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy Division of Literature and Languages University of Stirling 31st October 2015 1 Abstract “If you’ve never woken up from a car accident to discover that your wife is dead and you’re an animated rotting corpse, then you probably won’t understand.” (S. G. Browne, Breathers: A Zombie’s Lament) The zombie narrative has seen an increasing trend towards the emergence of a zombie sentience. The intention of this thesis is to examine the cultural framework that has informed the contemporary figure of the zombie, with specific attention directed towards the role of the thinking, conscious or sentient zombie. This examination will include an exploration of the zombie’s folkloric origin, prior to the naming of the figure in 1819, as well as the Haitian appropriation and reproduction of the figure as a representation of Haitian identity. The destructive nature of the zombie, this thesis argues, sees itself intrinsically linked to the notion of apocalypse; however, through a consideration of Frank Kermode’s A Sense of an Ending, the second chapter of this thesis will propose that the zombie need not represent an apocalypse that brings devastation upon humanity, but rather one that functions to alter perceptions of ‘humanity’ itself. The third chapter of this thesis explores the use of the term “braaaaiiinnss” as the epitomised zombie voice in the figure’s development as an effective threat within zombie-themed videogames.

Too few students undertake EH studies, culminating in a dearth of qualified Environmental Health Officers (EHOs) in Australia. A major deterrent to students enrolling in EH courses is a lack of appreciation of the relevance to their own lives. This is symptomatic of a wider problem of scientific literacy: the relevance gap and how to bridge it.

  • Zombie Riots and the Real of Capital
    DENNIS BÜSCHER-ULBRICH No Future for Nobody? Zombie Riots and the Real of Capital Capital is an abstract parasite, an insatiable vampire and zombie-maker; but the living flesh it converts into dead labor is ours, and the zombies it makes are us. (Fisher, Capitalist Realism 15) The riot is a circulation struggle because both capital and its disposses- sed have been driven to seek reproduction there. […] The police now stand in the place of the economy, the violence of the economy made flesh. […] To riot is to fail the measure of the human. To fail to be the subject. (Clover, Riot. Strike. Riot 46, 125, 166) The unresolved 2007-2009 crisis of accumulation has led to the re-emer- gence in public discourse of the idea that capitalism could end. For many, it was proof of the Marxian notion that capitalist modernity has an endemic tendency towards crisis. For some, this generated hope of capitalism’s ultimate demise. For those instilled with the neoliberal be- lief that ‘there is no alternative’ and a Fukuyamaist sense of the “End of History,” however, it also boosted an already latent dystopian sense of a crisis of civilization—a civilization torn by global military, ecological, ethno-nationalist, and racial conflict. This fundamental sense of crisis ar- guably facilitated and was perhaps also facilitated by the cinematic pro- liferation of the ubiquitous theme of post-apocalypse, in general, and ‘zombie riots,’ in particular. Cultural articulations of the latter, I argue, help create or sustain a cultural imaginary of ontological crisis in which the “unconditional Real of global Capital” (Žižek, Ticklish Subject 4) can be effectively disavowed through fictionalizing one of its most overt material-symbolic symptoms: a growing global surplus proletariat of 2 No Future for Nobody? Zombie Riots and the Real of Capital dispossessed, immiserated, and commonly racialized (non-)workers “no longer directly necessary for the self-valorization of capital” (Marx 557).

  • A Zombie Apocalypse...?
    A Zombie Apocalypse...? It’s a normal weekday evening. You flip over the channel to catch the news TakeAIM Winner 2018: and start to stretch out, but freeze mid-motion. Emma L Davis “Outbreak…spreading fast…biting…not safe…” Zeeman Building Centre for Complexity You glance over at the ironic Zombie Apocalypse Survival Guide sitting on Science your shelf and swallow hard. University of Warwick Coventry CV4 7AL The news blurs in front of you, but you make out the key points. Scientists are developing a cure while statisticians are desperately estimating the growth rate of the outbreak: How fast is the disease spreading? Can we Sponsors control it? Could we eliminate it completely? Your heart starts to race. Your palms sweat... Now we may not actually be living during a zombie apocalypse, but infectious diseases were still the cause of 17% of deaths worldwide in 2013, remaining a leading cause of mortality. Across the world there are health professionals and researchers asking exactly the same questions as the zombie-fighting statisticians, but for a range of different diseases and settings. My research combines data with equations that describe how some of these diseases are transmitted, aiming to predict outcomes and guide policy. For example, by considering the villages affected during the first 2018 DRC Ebola outbreak as interacting populations, we estimated the probability of disease spreading to the major capital, Kinshasa, before it had been controlled. Focusing on diseases that affect tropical developing countries, I use mathematical models to simulate the impact of different measures on transmission and investigate how we can best allocate resources as we drive these diseases towards extinction.

  • The Random Walking Dead: Effects of Urban Street Network Topology On
    The Random Walking Dead: Effects of urban street network topology on rates of infection spreading in zombie epidemics ∗ Ashley Bally Deepa Raoz Robert Haussmanx Sean P. Robinson { June 21, 2013 We examine the effects of the complex structure of urban surface road transportation networks on the rate of infection spread through the human population in a hypothetical outbreak of an apocalyptic zombie epidemic. Various cities and urban spaces have diverse layouts and networks patterns (i.e. a grid layout versus a naturally evolved street network). We explore how network topology{the dynamics of a network–influences the spread of a zombie epidemic throughout an urban system. We find that a normal city street network fares about as well as a simple 2d grid, but inhibits infection- propagation as compared to random and scale-free networks. 1 Introduction Zombies have become a cultural phenomenon in recent decades with an enormous amount of films, television shows, books, comics, and many other forms of entertainment dedi- cated to these undead, infinitely ravenous monsters. The rise in the popularity of zombies in modern culture has lead to an increasing amount of scholarship on the subject that has spanned multiple academic disciplines, including but not limited to mathematics, physics, computer science, political science, philosophy, and geography [9, 7, 8]. A main motivation for the use of zombies in all of these different disciplines is because zombies ∗Report to the NECSI Summer School on Complex Systems Modeling and Networks, June 17{21, 2013 yVanderbilt University and Johns Hopkins University zGeorgetown University xCarnegie Mellon University {MIT Dept.

  • Analyzing Zombie Dystopia As Neoliberal Scenario: an Exercise in Emancipatory Catastrophism
    CONCEPTUAL ANALYSIS published: 26 July 2018 doi: 10.3389/fsoc.2018.00020 Analyzing Zombie Dystopia as Neoliberal Scenario: An Exercise in Emancipatory Catastrophism Andreu Domingo* Centre for Demographic Studies, Barcelona, Spain This article starts with a hypothesis that the sociological analysis of literary and film production on the “living dead” in the 21st century, owing to the triumph of neoliberalism that has accompanied by the process of globalization, allows us to better understand the transformations that act on the population and the individuals that integrate it. The zombie genre, considered a dystopia -where the scenario of the uncertainty surrounding the risk has happened to that of the catastrophe- reflects the split between resilient and redundant population, inviting us to explore three fundamental features: (1) the causes of this split; (2) The construction of a new subjectivity that accompanies it; and, (3) the displacement of bio politics to the thanatopolitics that accounts for the fracture between liberalism and neoliberalism. Dystopian thinking, based on detecting the germs of negative evolutions in the present, the causes and their possible consequences, posing different scenarios for the future, can be understood as a method of cosmopolitan Edited by: sociological analysis, which ends in what Ulrich Beck described as “emancipatory Scott Schaffer, catastrophism,” that is, not only to identify the seeds of the negative, but the good of University of Western Ontario, Canada the bad.

  • Early Christian Re-Writing and the History of the Pericope Adulterae
    Early Christian Re-Writing and the History of the Pericope Adulterae JENNIFER WRIGHT KNUST Texts, even sacred texts, are never fixed. Meaning is never stable and inter- pretations shift in concert with the changing concerns of those who present them. These principles are readily demonstrated by a consideration of the complex history of the pericope adulterae—a story about Jesus, an adulteress, and a group of interlocutors found in the Gospel of John. This story is absent from many early gospel manuscripts and is remarkably unstable when it does appear. There are a few second- and third-century citations of the tale, but they do not mention the identity or motives of the interlocutors, nor do they specify the guilt (or innocence) of the woman or the men who accused her. By contrast, fourth- and fifth-century exegetes regularly suggested that the inter- locutors sought to test Jesus, represented the woman as guilty, and claimed that “the Jews” were damned for their sins, readings that were preserved in gospel manuscripts. The pericope adulterae, increasingly invoked to produce Christian hegemony at the expense of “the Jews,” real or imagined, became a story about Jewish sin and Christian difference. This interpretation then influ- ence the transmission of the tale, though traces of earlier readings lingered. Efforts to fix the content and meaning of “sacred text” by ancient Chris- tians and others is always also an attempt at social scripting, as Vincent Wimbush has reminded us. “Sacred texts,” he observes, “are as much determined by society and culture as society and culture are determined Earlier versions of this paper were presented at the Radcliffe Institute (January 2004) and the Society of Biblical Literature (November 2004).
