To achieve this, the journal will be directed at mapping out contemporary changes in the new global business environment.

The journal wishes to publish all high quality research on organizational change and accounting. Work published should endeavour to provide the medium between accountants and organizational experts, whether they work in industry, the public sector, in consulting, or in academic institutions.

Emerging economies are defined broadly and may include those in transition to more market-based regimes. We also welcome well researched field-based descriptive cases.

Major criteria used to evaluate papers are:

• Research; well designed and executed
• Presentation; well written and conforming to the journal's style.
