This paper discusses four potential sources of lag dynamics in inflation: non-rational behavior, staggered contracting …, frictions on price adjustment, and shifts in the long-run inflation anchor of agent expectations (the perceived inflation target …). Expressions for inflation dynamics from structural models which admit these different sources of lag dynamics are contrasted …
