In this second installment of their three-part series on the 1970s, Alex and Tyler unravel the economic and geopolitical forces behind the oil shocks that upended global global markets, triggered economic crises, and forced a dramatic reshaping of U.S. energy policy. Along the way, they debate whether the shocks ultimately led to long-term benefits like the rise of alternative energy and the fracking revolution, or if they merely prolonged economic pain. The conversation ranges from OPEC’s newfound power and the Yom Kippur War’s role in reshaping oil markets to broader questions about how shocks like these influence policy in the long-term. They close by reflecting on how the policy failures of the 1970s paved the way for Milton Friedman’s rise to prominence, and why his ideas—born from an era of rampant inflation and misguided price controls—remain crucial for understanding today’s economic challenges.
