Abstract

The editors introduce the book, outlining the motivation for the volume and reflecting on the profiles of the contributors. They explain the rationale for their choice of the four broad themes covered in the book and summarise the key insights from the chapters in each theme. They point in particular to the rich variety of approaches to researching accounting in emerging markets, and the depth of insight provided by contributors. The chapter concludes with the editors’ reflections on the avenues for future research and advice to those developing a research interest in this area.
