Alternative Accounts Conference
Alternative Accounts Conference 2019
Call for Papers
The Alternative Accounts Conference brings together accounting faculty and doctoral students from North America and beyond who are interested in alternative accounting research. The Conference especially aims to increase accounting researchers’ awareness of the diverse areas of research belonging to the “alternative” paradigm of accounting research, and to provide a forum to discuss these studies from a variety of viewpoints – in a constructive environment. This conference rotates between Alberta, Ontario and Québec.
Main Conference
The 2019 conference will be held in Kingston, Ontario on Friday, May 10 and Saturday, May 11, 2019, at Smith School of Business, Queen’s University. We are interested in receiving critical and interpretive papers at a relatively advanced stage of completion or already submitted to journals but not yet accepted for publication.
Emerging Scholars Colloquium
The Emerging Scholars Colloquium precedes the main conference (Thursday, May 9, 2019). The Colloquium aims to provide doctoral students and emerging researchers with the opportunity to discuss their work with other doctoral students and established scholars in the field.
