  • Description: Accounting is a vibrant and dynamic area, which in the last decades has assumed prime importance in the economy, in society, and in the world in general. Research in the field is particularly relevant given the potential effect that accounting information can produce and disseminate in society (namely among decision and policy makers). However, the research in the area has been accused of being sterile and stagnant. This editorial intends to assess its development over time and reflect upon its current problems and challenges.
