本文提出了一个理解“阶级妥协”概念的一般理论框架，即工人联合权力与资本家利益之间关系的“逆j”模型：工人阶级权力的增加对资本家阶级利益产生不利影响，直到这种权力超过某个中间门槛，超过这个门槛，工人阶级权力的进一步增加就可能有利于资本家的利益。本文认为，反向j曲线本身是工人权力对资本家利益的两种不同影响的结果：一种是消极影响，工人权力削弱了资本家单方面做出各种决策的能力；另一种是积极影响，工人权力帮助资本家解决他们面临的各种集体行动问题。
This article proposes a general theoretical framework for understanding the concept of "class compromise" in terms of a "reverse-J" model of the relationship between the associational power of workers and the interests of capitalists: increases in working-class power adversely affect capitalist-class interests until such power crosses some intermediate threshold beyond which further increases in working-class power are potentially beneficial to capitalists' interests. This article argues that the reverse-J curve is itself the result of two distinct kinds of effects of workers' power on capitalists' interests: one, a negative effect, in which workers' power undermines the capacity of capitalists to unilaterally make various kinds of decisions, and the second, a positive effect, in which workers' power helps capitalists solve the various kinds of collective action problems they face.
