Answer:

Parochial Participation

Explanation:

This type of political participation occurs when an individual does not actively participate in politics, do not vote nor participate in political movements, but only does when an issue directly affects him.

In this case, John is only motivated to engage in political activity now that he doesn't want the power company to build next to his property.  Most of these people have little knowledge of political parties or activities, are barely aware of the existence of a central government.
