The Eighth Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Accounting Conference

Cardiff Business School, Cardiff University, 10-12th July 2006

FIRST CALL FOR PAPERSThe IPA conference is an established forum for research into the social, political and organizational aspects of accounting theory and practice. The organizers of the Eighth Conference invite researchers from all areas of the social sciences to contribute papers.

The conference will respond to the concerns of an evolving research community. The organizers aim to highlight emerging intellectual issues and encourage new agendas, as well as stimulate debate within and between established paradigms, by arranging a variety of workshops, panel discussions and plenary debates. Major themes in the past have included:accounting, finance and organizational controls; markets, institutions and social order; accountability and identity; the changing organization of the accounting profession; globalization, regulation, and technology; public and environmental policy; and accounting methodology, knowledge and education. Three copies of completed papers or the paper in Word should be sent to the organizers no later than 15 February 2006.

A distinctive feature of the IPA is the thorough review that each paper receives. In addition, papers are presented at the conference by a discussant with a response from the author. Reviewers and discussants are central to the continuing success of this conference and we encourage wide participation in the conference through the review process.

EMERGING SCHOLARS’ COLLOQUIUM1PA2006 will host a forum specifically for post-graduates and new Faculty, which will be held immediately prior to the conference.

If you would like to register for the conference, submit a paper, attend the doctoral colloquium, be a reviewer and/or discussant, details of what to do next can be found at our website.
