Abstract

This paper is in the form of a report from the Editors on the first 10 years of Management Accounting Research. It describes the diversity of papers which have been published in the journal ? in terms of their topics, research setting - theoretical orientation and research methods. It also briefly compares the research published in Management Accounting Research with the management accounting research by North Americans described by Shields (1997). Finally, it calls for more papers to explore the boundaries of management accounting and its nature in new organisational forms, both within and beyond the existing organisational boundaries.
