Funny you should ask that, because I'm just writing a paper on energy and its role in the economy and came across this rather fascinating reference: "A Monetary Explanation of the Great Stagflation of the 1970s" - it's a pdf file, about 181kb big. Abstract – The origins of stagflation and the possibility of its recurrence continue
