Morphology
destabilization = destabilize (transparent) = de + stabil + ize + ation
This is a regular noun formation from the verb 'destabilize' meaning the act or process of doing it.
Etymology
The word destabilization comes from the first part de- meaning 'remove' or 'reduce' and the root stabil meaning 'standing firm', as in the English word stable. A helpful image is someone taking away a table's legs: when you remove what keeps it steady, it falls, and that's why destabilization means making something less stable or secure.
