Journal Of Accounting And Organizational Change
(ISSN 1839-5473)
Aims & scope
The research landscape is continually changing, and impact is growing in importance in the new digitalized, global business environment. JAOC is committed to promote high impact research on organizational change and accounting practices in nonprofits, the public sector, or in the private sector. JAOC encourages submissions from authors with similar goals. The journal invites empirical and review papers drawing on interdisciplinary theoretical and methodological perspectives. In addition to empirical and case study articles, we also welcome replications of previously published studies and review articles on advances in accounting and organizational change research.
Primary criteria used to evaluate papers are:
Interdisciplinarity – Drawing on other fields for research contribution
Co-creation – Working with those who the research intends to effect to inform the research project/article
Mission-driven research – Research contributing to a firm mission
Community engagement – Working with various communities to ensure research reaches diverse audiences
Sustainable development goals - Research contributing to achievements of sustainable development goals
Well synthesized - Synergizing of research, theory and practice
Industry responsiveness - Work contributing to provide the medium between accountants and organizational experts, whether they work in industry, the public sector, in consulting, or in academic institutions.
