Are there any Star Trek novels that depict the Federation primarily or entirely outside of Starfleet? There’s been a lot of fan speculation over the years on what civilian life in the Federation would be like, and I’d like to see whether any writers have actually tackled the subject.

1I don't see this as a list / recommendations question because it's asking if such a thing has been depicted. That seems on topic to me– NKCampbellOct 14, 2019 at 19:06

From a quick look at the Novels page of Memory Alpha, I found two novels that seems to fit:
- Articles of the Federation, which deals with the political side of the Federation,
- New Worlds, New Civilizations, follows a journalist exploring iconic locations, meeting some well known figures and being present at a some historical events.
