Abstract

Fostering dialogue between academe and practitioners Since its inception in 1991, Australian Accounting Review has become internationally recognised as the pre-eminent forum for the discussion of developments in the discipline and practice of accounting in Australasia. Australian Accounting Review has positioned itself at the intersection of business and academe, publishing articles by leading practitioners and researchers. Readers of the journal are from industry, commerce and government. International recognition as a leading research journal The journal has gained international recognition in recent years, with several published articles winning awards in the Articles of Merit Competition conducted annually by the International Federation of Accountants’ Professional Accountants in Business (PAIB) Committee. Australian Accounting Review enjoys high recognition and status in the UK. The journal is included in the SSCI and has an Impact Factor. Highly readable with academic integrity Australian Accounting Review’s editorial policy stipulates that published articles should be highly readable and easily accessible to non-academics, yet have the authority of academic rigour. It is not a journal written by academics for academics. Articles pass through a double-blind review process to ensure the quality of their underlying research methodology and argument. However, the primary focus of the journal is to inform the reader of why analysis and research findings are important to policies and practices in the disciplines of accounting and finance. Critical analysis by leading practitioners and academics A regular feature of Australian Accounting Review is practitioner forums in which practitioners and academics view topical issues from different perspectives. Past forums, which have proved useful for teaching purposes, have focused on corporate governance, the implementation of accounting standards and assumptions underlying current reporting practices. Future issues will include accounting education, management control systems and interfirm relationships, and performance management. Wide-ranging and informative coverage Australian Accounting Review publishes articles drawing readers’ attention to a wide range of issues and developments. The journal has received manuscripts on topics including: critiques of proposed and mandated reporting practices in the public and government sectors; reviews of reports commissioned by government and standard-setting bodies; evaluation of legal developments applying to corporate governance; investigation into the effectiveness of accepted accountability mechanisms in private and government sectors; case studies, including discussion of implications for improving management and reporting practices; consideration of alternative theories of measurement and accounting; critical perspectives of current issues and problems facing preparers of financial statements. Articles that do not deal specifically with Australasian issues are considered for publication if they have clear relevance to Australian Accounting Review’s primary readership.
