Every day in many countries, various forms and types of political actions are carried out, which are aimed at improving the country's governance system. This article will focus on denationalization, how it is used in modern politics and in what areas it is used.

What is denationalization?

Denationalization is a partial or complete loss of a national identity, without the right to its full restoration, or replacement with another identity. This policy may apply to both people and property. An example would be the transfer of state property to private individuals.

For example, according to Vyacheslav Kirilenko, Russia deleted about a million Ukrainians from its population during the last and penultimate census. The Minister of Culture of Ukraine is sure that this was the policy of denationalization.

In what areas can denationalization be carried out?

The policy of denationalization can indeed cover many areas of society. These can be: language, culture, ethnic composition, customs, nationalfeatures and so on. However, there are situations when denationalization becomes partial. This is possible by selling only some shares of the state enterprise to private individuals, instead of selling it completely. That's when the property becomes mixed.

Denationalization is a policy that is most often used to strengthen the private sector in a country, or when entrepreneurship is inefficient, the product produced is of poor quality.

In 1976, Hayek published a book called "Private Money". This is the very moment when the denationalization of the currency takes place. The author is sure that only that currency can gain permanency, the publishers of which will convince the people of high necessity and importance, as well as that this currency will have permanence. In this way, many problems such as inflation can be avoided.
