In the business world, recent years have seen a growing
acknowledgement of the value of intangible assets rather than
physical assets. This has precipitated a crisis in the accounting
industry: the accounting representations relied upon for years can
no longer be taken for granted. Here, Norman Macintosh argues that
we now need to understand accounting in a different manner.
Offering several different ways of looking at accounting and
accountants, he draws upon the work of eminent thinkers such as
Barthes, Baudrillard, Derrida, Foucault, Lyotard and Bahktin. In
doing this, he develops revolutionary insights into the nature of
accounting, pioneering the introduction of contemporary
poststructuralist ideas into accounting theory and practice. With a
wide range of examples and case studies and now available in
paperback for the first time, this revolutionary new work will be
essential reading for academic and professional accountants along
with all those with an interest in the future of accounting.
