Morphology
reconversion = conversion (transparent) = re + convert + ion
For learners who know 'conversion' in the religious sense, adding 're-' clearly gives the meaning of converting back again.
Etymology
Reconversion has the parts re- 'again' and convert 'to change', just like in convert or conversion. So a religious reconversion is someone 'changing back' to their former faith or beliefs.
