During this time, capitalism – smooth and successful between 1945-1975 (sustained high growth, low unemployment, and no financial crises)&nbsp;– weakened. Through pension funds, investment funds, and arbitrage (or hedge) funds, shareholders became well organized and seized power in developed countries’ firms.
此时，在1945-1975年间平稳而成功的资本主义（持续的高增长、较低的失业率并且没有金融危机）被弱化了。通过养老基金、投资基金和套利（或对冲）基金，股东们变得更有组织并掌控了发达国家的公司。在他们的压力下，越来越多的流程被“外包”。
