Very roughly, you had liberalism until that crashed in the 1930 with the Great Depression.
Capitalism was rebooted with social liberalism to include welfare, education, healthcare. In the seventies that ran aground in stagflation. Rich people didn’t like investing anymore as the profits weren’t big enough to their liking with all that welfare. Then came the oil crisis and that killed it completely.
The system was rebooted again with a tweaked form of liberalism, so that’s now neoliberalism. It repeats all the mistakes of that past, slowly salami slices welfare and healthcare away, chips away at all the safeguards and then crashes again in 2008 with financial crisis.
After that, the system was basically resuscitated, pumped full of money to keep it going and now we see how long it lasts before something really bad happens. Welfare, education and healthcare are turning into dust for most people so something going to give.
