A remarkable debut by one of America s premier young reporters on financial corruption, Casey Michel s American Kleptocracy offers an explosive investigation into how the United States of America built the largest illicit offshore finance system the world has ever known. An indefatigable young American journalist who has virtually cornered the international kleptocracy beat on the US end of the black aquifer. The Los Angeles Review of BooksFor years, one country has acted as the greatest offshore haven in the world, attracting hundreds of billions of dollars in illicit finance tied directly to corrupt regimes, extremist networks, and the worst the world has to offer. But it hasnt been the sandsplattered Caribbean islands, or even traditional financial secrecy havens like Switzerland or Panama, that have come to dominate the offshoring world. Instead, the country profiting the most also happens to be the one that still claims to be the moral leader of the free world, and the one that claims to be leading the fight against the crooked and the corrupt: the USA.American Kleptocracy examines just how the United States implosion into a center of global offshoring took place: how states like Delaware and Nevada perfected the art of the anonymous shell company, and how post9/11 reformers watched their success usher in a new flood of illicit finance directly into the U.S.; how African despots and postSoviet oligarchs came to dominate American coastlines, American industries, and entire cities and small towns across the American Midwest; how Naziera lobbyists birthed an entire industry of spinmen whitewashing transnational crooks and despots, and how dirty money has now begun infiltrating America s universities and think tanks and cultural centers; and how those on the frontline are trying to restore America s legacy of anticorruption leadershipand finally end this reign of American kleptocracy.
