Abstract

Supply shocks played an important role in macroeconomic fluctuations during the 1970’s. Supply shocks are also increasingly important in Keynesian and neo-classical models of the business cycle. This paper is a short survey of these theoretical models. It also discusses the history of supply shocks in recent business cycles.
