| Well, it means that they are put in juxtaposition, or are compared. It doesn't really suggest a change in order, but it might suggest some sort of conflict, as in: It was the bullies versus the bullied, and as is often the case, the bullied managed to come out on top. A phrase suggesting a change in order would be: Now, the bullies have become the bullied |
