Morphology

renegotiation = renegotiate (transparent) = re + negotiate + ion

This is a standard noun formation from the verb 'renegotiate' meaning the process or act of doing it.

Etymology

Renegotiation is made of re- 'again' and negotiate 'to make a deal', so it means going back to talk about a deal or contract to change its terms.
