Summary/Abstract: Differentiating the terms of pan- politics and hyper- politics as one of the characters of real- politics, the text illustrates the usage of prefix hyper in different contexts and the meaning of the term hyper politics in the usual political rhetoric. It talks about different forms of hyper- politicizing and about hyper politics in different spheres of the social life. As undemocratic consequences of hyper political activities – and consequences as it’s key marks- according to the author, are going into the very essence of hyper politics – apostrophes: ideology and political de- individualisation, threatening decadence of civil society and, in relation with it, production of political apathy. Political apathy in Bosnian wide reality is suggesting the opening of the socialization process of the parts of hyper – politically radicalised voting body and shaping of politics animating of passive, and mild towards democratic ethos, oriented citizen.
