Abstract

The issue of cultural influence in explaining behaviour in social systems has been recognised for some time, however, its impact on accounting as a social system is a more recent field of study. This paper examines the theory of cultural influence on the international practice of accounting and critiques the contemporary research methodologies used to test this theory.
