Accounting, Business & Financial History - Special Issue German Accounting
In recent years Accounting, Business & Financial History has published a series of special issues on accounting history in specific countries. This call extends this theme to Germany. In spite of rich sources of archival data and a fascinating and complex history, relatively few papers on German accounting history have appeared in the English language academic literature. This Special Issue represents one step towards remedying this state of affairs. Submissions are invited on the following subjects:
- •
Professionalisation, particularly critical re-examinations of the history of the audit profession
- •
Histories of accounting education
- •
Gender studies of accounting and business
- •
Accounting, auditing and the state
- •
The impact of National Socialism and other regimes
- •
The interfaces between accounting, taxation, law and economics
- •
Corporate governance issues in historical perspective
- •
The development of company law
- •
Biographical studies
- •
Histories of cost and management accounting
- •
Accounting in the public sector
- •
Histories of accounting in other social and organisational settings
The above list is not exhaustive and papers are invited on other subjects including comparative studies between Germany and other countries. The call is directed at authors of any nationality.
Papers must be submitted in English, although editorial assistance with the English language will be available for the papers selected. Instructions for contributors can be found in any recent issue of ABFH or at http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/authors/r-authors/abfauth.html
Papers submitted will be subject to the normal refereeing process and should be sent by 31 December 2003 to Lisa Evans, Guest Editor, ABFH, Accounting, School of Management, University of Edinburgh, William Robertson Building, 50 George Square, Edinburgh EH8 9JY, UK
