Just as Europe consists of countries with different languages,
cultures, histories, wealth levels and systems of jurispridence,
and exhibits a mosaic of different tastes and preferences, so do
accounting's roles and functions differ widely across European
countries. Differences in management accounting practices and
control approaches abound. the question is no longer whether there
is variety but its extent and explanation. In considering European
variety in management accounting, it may be asked what trends if
any are discernible in management accounting practices generally?
What historical factors have conditioned management accounting
wherever and in whatever form it exists? Are there links between
management accounting research and practice? Are there competing
theories within the field which are nation-specific? To what extent
is the implementation of emergent cost-management approaches
evident within companies? Such issues are explored in this book
which also provides some basis for exploring national specifities
in management accounting whilst offering room to ponder over its
commonalities. Distinguished European commentators provide
comprehensive analysis of past and existing management accounting
practices and conceptual thinking. The contributors give a sense of
whether modern management accounting approaches are evident in
enterprises withing their nation and discuss findings of empirical
investigations in constructing `country perspectives'. Each chapter
successfully presents an informed overview of country features
indicative of a rich and diverse European tapestry of management
accounting thought and practice. Ultimately the book provides a
useful starting point not only for making cross-national
comparative observations but also for identifying opportunities and
trends in management accounting systems changes.
