Morphology
reintegrative = reintegrate (transparent) = re + integrate + ive
The adjective is a regular and easily interpretable formation from the verb 'reintegrate' using the common suffix '-ive'.
Etymology
The word reintegrative breaks into re- meaning 'again' and integrate meaning 'to make whole', the same root you see in integrity and integral. So a reintegrative method or program is about bringing parts or people back together and making them whole again after separation.
