Postpolitics describes depoliticized and desocialized retreat into private life

Evidence

Postpolitics, by comparison, speaks to a world both depoliticized and desocialized, in which citizens retreat from collective life into the private sphere. Properly inaugurated in 1989, it spans the 1990s and early 2000s, only temporarily interrupted by the wave of antiglobalization protests that ushered in the millennium. — Anton Jäger, Hyperpolitics, 45
