This conference will build on recent scholarship in Accounting History Review that demonstrates an important and impressive shift from accounting history to accounting in history – from accounting historians to historians who examine multi-faceted social and institutional contexts through an accounting lens. . . . Theoretical, empirical and review papers are welcomed in all areas of accounting history. We encourage studies that move beyond disciplinary boundaries and engage with historians in other research areas.The conference format will include approximately 40 minutes for presentation and discussion in order to provide worthwhile feedback for presenters.
Those wishing to offer papers to be considered for presentation at the conference should submit an extended abstract of their paper (not exceeding one page) by February 15, 2019, to Cheryl S. McWatters, Editor, Accounting History Review, at McWatters@telfer.uOttawa.ca.
For a more complete discussion of conference aims and procedures, please see the full call for papers.
