Description: Focuses on the concept of stagflation--when inflation and unemployment rise simultaneously when there is a supply shock. Looks at how demand management policies can fight cost-push inflation only by increasing unemployment. The failure of government efforts to beat the high unemployment and high inflation of the 1970's is illustrated. Looks at the economic expansion of the 1990's and addresses the question of whether we can still control inflation as we enter the 21st century.
