This text aims to provide an in-depth review of recent historical
research on the emergence and maturation of institutionalized
public accountancy in Scotland from the mid nineteenth century
onwards. Not only is this research important for understanding the
elitism of the professional project, but it also provides a
template from which further studies can be undertaken of public
accountancy's origins in other countries. The need for comparative
international research of the professional project is assisted by
the text's content. Individual contributions cover a range of
historical studies including the original foundations and founders,
the early competitive struggles with other bodies, the nature of
Victorian public practice, individual successes and failures, and
the gender issue. Most of the material has a contemporary relevance
to accounting policy makers, teachers and students. It should also
be of interest to social researchers of professions generally.
This book, first published in 1988, provides an analysis of
recruitment to the new profession of nineteenth-century
accountancy, and in doing so, gives an insight into the complex
origins and behaviour of the emergent professional classes. Unlike
most studies, this is a study of all recruits, not only of those
who succeeded in becoming qualified. This permits an analysis of
the whole process of recruitment, including the choice of
accountancy as a career option and as a vehicle of social mobility.
