Hendrik Vollmer, da Warwick Business School, vai apresentar "Exploring Accounting in Society".

Abstract: The seminar Exploring Accounting in Society invites to consider the ways in which accounting affects organizations, institutions, communities, professions, and everyday life. It will discuss how accounting practice is shaping the way we do business and government, the way we negotiate our values and valuations, and how we keep track of ourselves and prepare for the future. It will highlight how little of accounting is controlled by the accounting profession and raises key persistent issues in accounting practice that concern the professional practitioner as much as the everyday life accountant: accountability and unaccountability, inequality and social justice, and inclusion and exclusion. Reinvigorating the interdisciplinary approach to accounting and its place in society, this seminar will touch upon the intersection between accounting, management, governance and sustainability, business ethics, diversity and inclusion, public administration, organizational behaviour, and organizational culture.
