Fraud has been a persistent threat to the integrity of the federal procurement system, especially for the American military, since the days of the American Revolution. Recent reports of corrupt contractors and corrupted government officials clearly show that the problem remains unabated. This is a study of the history of procurement fraud, with a particular focus on the defense industry, an analysis of various systemic failures in the government’s corruption control legal regime, and a series of proposals to strengthen the government’s ability to combat it.
