       I wonder if there’s a word for the crime of killing the polity as a political body. The people might be left alive but their institutions, their very capacity to govern themselves even somewhat justly, have been destroyed

       “Policide.” Okay, that’s straightforward enough. Has several meanings but prof Steven Smith uses it this way: “a systematic project to destroy an entire way of doing and understanding politics and governance.” Example: Chile under the Junta. Can also be “Politicide.”
