Global forces and accountability once again converge in this
volume, illustrating the significant and multifaceted nature of the
role of accounting in societies. The accounting discipline in its
numbers, its silences, its privileging of select classifications
over others, it is continually constructing knowledge, cultivates
meaning, and impacts public policy in the intersection of
socio-political-economic realms. The research in this volume
responds to calls for examining accounting as an interdisciplinary
role in neoliberal governance by examining migration, race, gender,
class and the creation of the 'other'. Each paper uniquely
contributes toward significantly exploring accounting's role in
disenfranchising populations while identifying participants
actualized and potential role in emancipatory struggles. By
recognizing marginalized groups embedded power rather than casting
them as victims, the authors reject an inevitability of widening
inequalities and forms of violence to world populations. Rather
these critical accounting researchers seriously tackle the task of
transformation, providing pathways for thinking differently and
aspiring for change.
