From such concerns, a new literature is emerging that seeks to reformulate corporate, social, and political activity, and the theoretical and practical means by which we apprehend and affect that activity.Research Areas Include:• Studies involving the political economy of accounting, critical accounting, radical accounting, and accounting's implication in the exercise of power• Financial accounting's role in the processes of international capital formation, including its impact on stock market stability and international banking activities• Management accounting's role in organizing the labor process• The relationship between accounting and the state in various social formations• Studies of accounting's historical role, as a means of "remembering" the subject's social and conflictual character• The role of accounting in establishing "real" democracy at work and other domains of life• Accounting's adjudicative function in international exchanges, such as that of the Third World debt• Antagonisms between the social and private character of accounting, such as conflicts of interest in the audit process• The identification of new constituencies for radical and critical accounting information• Accounting's involvement in gender and class conflicts in the workplace• The interplay between accounting, social conflict, industrialization, bureaucracy, and technocracy• Reappraisals of the role of accounting as a science and technology• Critical reviews of "useful" scientific knowledge about organizationsBenefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Children, Spirituality, Loss and Recovery: What do we mean by 'spirituality' and what relevance does it have to schooling and society? The International Journal of Children's Spirituality seeks to debate such questions through peer reviewed contributions from those in education concerned with these issues.International Journal of Children's Spirituality provides an international, inter-disciplinary and multi-cultural forum for those involved in research and development of children's and young people's spirituality, within which this debate can be addressed and widened.This includes examining the nature and possible expressions of spirituality, the philosophical and practical foundations for morality, and their relationship in our rapidly changing world. The need for and the nature of spiritual and moral development in schools and society is of great significance, but whose responsibility is this and how can progress be achieved?The editors believe a constructive and wide-ranging debate is necessary, involving educators, academics, religious communities, parents, local and national government and employers, and that this should take account of international perspectives and contributions from a broad range of subject disciplines.Most educational publications attract a readership that is clearly divided into academics and teachers, so that what is read by one group is seldom consulted by the other. It is also true that many teachers do not consider themselves to be researchers. When exploring the issue of children's spirituality this lack of communication can result in the failure of any initiative. International Journal of Children's Spirituality encourages debate across these two cultures, as well as across the cultures of childhood and adulthood, nationhood, ethnicity and religious identity.Articles aim to stimulate further awareness and debate in the field, and to encourage the development of research and the academic study of spirituality in children and young people.Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.Disclaimer for Scientific, Technical and Social Science publications:Taylor & Francis make every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the 8220;Content8221;) contained in its publications.
