Accountability and Government Oversight
Mercatus Center research seeks to understand the consequences – both intended and unintended – of public sector management processes, such as funding and management decisions by state and federal governments, and improve the state of knowledge to which these processes refer, thereby fostering solutions that promote a freer, more prosperous, and civil society. Research focus includes: tax and fiscal policy, government accountability, the contracting process, government reform, and congressional oversight.
