deprivatizes
Transfers to government
Deprivatizes means to transfer from private to public ownership or control—the reverse of privatization.
A government that deprivatizes an industry brings it back under state management: The new administration deprivatized the railways after years of poor private-sector performance.
The term appears most often in debates about utilities, healthcare, and other services that have shifted between public and private hands.
