nationalisations
Government seizes industries
Nationalisations is the plural of nationalisation, the British spelling of nationalization.
A nationalisation is an instance of a government taking control of a private industry or asset, transferring it to public ownership: The nationalisations of the 1940s brought coal, rail, and steel under state control.
The opposite process is privatisation.
