Editorial Objectives

The objective of Research in Accounting in Emerging Economies is to raise the level of interest in the specific problems of accounting in emerging economies; and increase awareness of real issues, so that accounting in these countries will not just be seen as a matter of copying what is done in the industrialized countries. RAEE is intended to provide an authoritative overview of accounting research and progress in emerging economies.

Topicality

RAEE arose out of the belief that the international accounting literature should devote more attention to the study of the accounting problems and issues of emerging economies (developing and newly industrialized countries). Through an increasing awareness of the real issues and the accounting practices advocated in it, these works have become relevant to the actual needs of its readers, and is making real contributions to the accounting development process of emerging economies. This growth necessitates a dedicated series to cater for the needs of academics focusing on accounting issues in emerging economies.
