			The earliest examples of privatization of state property have variously been traced to [[United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland\|Britain's]] privatization of its steel industry in the 1950s, partial privatizations in the [[Federal Republic of Germany]] in the 1950s and 60s, or [[Republic of Chile\|Chile]] in the 1970s and the [[United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland\|United Kingdom]] in the 1980s under [[Augusto Pinochet]] and [[Margaret Thatcher]]. However, the earliest case of mass privatization of state property actually occurred in [[German Reich (1933–1945)\|Nazi Germany]].<ref>{{Citation\|author=Germá Bel\|year=2006\|title=Against the Mainstream: Nazi Privatization in 1930s Germany\|title-url=https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=895247\|pdf=https://download.ssrn.com/06/04/05/ssrn_id895247_code373322.pdf?response-content-disposition=inline&X-Amz-Security-Token=IQoJb3JpZ2luX2VjENz%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2FwEaCXVzLWVhc3QtMSJHMEUCICZZq3zQ5pHIa2deykZUwivfMg9clPoihW1AqmkhxRONAiEAwnAooqjS%2Fp%2BEUZPWmFSnCZHw36Q5X%2FOqqCzGTZmEvfgqvQUINBAEGgwzMDg0NzUzMDEyNTciDHg8e9wz%2BL3N2aROUCqaBXLWqv%2FMdrVLMiDb85TpS6nR5x4j9ibzv%2B8M58SxV%2BbXNnsHbz03csLfZYJKO6btwS69p6yEXK7hiArFhMcnjRf9QPTjtP%2BhRqRUSOFlActJsdazE2teB12iVrKvSZ4X2pfiZsn3Db%2BUabZzGUkP735pmBptb1d1XvMa2sQzSNbOUHJFKjHub0j2fYdvGJnXU7%2B78G%2Flbxw%2BKy3oWd6Za7Fom9tzu0NndN2Idw4YhqCXFSUHmHZWGKGTSwbADILV%2F5K9%2BBDeyRKqaGFOi1Ela85VzYE7XIfQ2maTTurbmCf2iGlJUom1n284uGSdKpTmNItw0mk9jPVgptdS4SPkI2XaVkozSGVh4pD0ILd20%2FhpvlT7cBRNooZgJVeu0pPbu2ZECnEM%2FuNsMPmXhA0%2BQ79vmOCBkCbJer3PswgU33zTXouNq%2BsZuYFVq6ze6ZAbkEbwfs0%2BCL9wz%2FqZWFzav4TyK4UWcZHmbOWODJuYh6Qm2i53JwbxmoVQ8F73AKTo57rOHV14%2F7D4KB1Auf%2BTBzN90PB1Z0lywobQ2zoYQv9jT%2BEjrXzYHSLGnmTHs%2BtJHUp0BBCqo7YsD3YhVYarUgy9wdvFnB1vaJaZzfO5pkPPTlq8U4yYzuHrBqMeOyTuyMTADZmhfTsvoQ3dGHGUJpaI437RFrm7gdb8JYxluWCSQr%2FhlsCSZcNuotm%2BQO%2FeHNdS1J0PAWg8PSlnETLK7MmZOVTTOfzAF%2FjYP5FzcZYJdkRehenT69bz5ErkUxIOVgDYjysAeVxZLv%2BkzYsaN1URh8i4K%2FEc1iA6wpv4tVHnoxgZizHxqdPalRPdF8pINgRqFovwfFAZtUqglwy1Pqa%2FmAYdsIxRswEkAo1Y9qP%2BuzJ9J%2BcW2DqWgzDfo6jFBjqxARP%2F8hJ5UJkq1FA0jZyiGiHSZ5gJ4nxUtXgAtGjKDOnlxUxR%2FIkicgBWC6%2F46IZYF6Vg5Q51dJfm4qfiM9bAB9W3nmVMxUaNAFSbKIZ2QtzeAnepul9Adsc24d8q7tVxryNklTWt8iUzgnvChEMsHnLtBsctgWiABUcbjJg9zqRm1T6jNZc3yhgozbCtS%2FB0%2BTX2YNc1SHStb5ytOhKrtcndbTGrd1YHQeEEsUZpDLzq%2Fw%3D%3D&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Date=20250823T195953Z&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Expires=300&X-Amz-Credential=ASIAUPUUPRWEZF6KZXUU%2F20250823%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Signature=d2fea1378f19c24801b2126ba1eb7bbd868bbcd6040a1248bdc61c4112231e45&abstractId=895247}}</ref> The English word "privatization" is sometimes mistakenly dated back to 1969, although it was actually derived from the earlier "reprivatization," a translation of the German "''Reprivatisierung''" dating back to the 1930s.<ref>{{Citation\|author=Germà Bel\|year=2006\|title=The Coining of “Privatization” and Germany’s National Socialist Party\|title-url=https://www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=10.1257/jep.20.3.187\|page=187-194\|pdf=https://pubs.aeaweb.org/doi/pdfplus/10.1257/jep.20.3.187\|publisher=Journal of Economic Perspectives\|doi=10.1257/jep.20.3.187\|volume=20}}</ref>
