Err, isn't that *nationalization*? ;-)
In British English, "nationalization" means state seizure of a company
or entire industry, which historically resulted in its being given to
the Trades Unions to run. For those of us of a "certain age", it's a
very dirty word. It's less offensive in American English, which would
instead waffle about "the constitutional principle of Eminent Domain".
I said I'd ask elsewhere for suggestions, and have been given a book
title (I've not checked whether this is still in print) and a PDF:
"Good Style for Science and Engineering Writing" by John Kirkman, Pitman
(1980) ISBN 0 273 01423 4
http://www.futurestate.com/assets/techwriting_guidelines.pdf
I'd comment that the PDF is Californain so has sections on things like
gender neutrality. In general I reserve judgement, other than that a
couple of people thought these merited suggestion.
