Call For
Papers

Deadline: 1 November 2024 (GMT)

We invite contributions to the 7th Alternative Accounts Europe (AAE) conference. The AAE conference is an annual event supported by the British Accounting and Finance Association (BAFA), Interdisciplinary Perspectives Special Interest Group (IPSIG). It brings together scholars from a range of disciplines and backgrounds with an interest in studying accounting as a social and institutional practice broadly considered – including, but not in any way limited to, the jurisdiction of the accounting profession.

We particularly encourage contributions that challenge dominant conceptions of accounting—whether by interrogating established practice and its role in organisations and society, or by questioning our understanding of what accounting is or what it could become.
