Synopsis

Management Accounting and Control Systems, 2nd Edition covers conventional themes of accounting and contgrol but from a different perspetive, using insights from sociological theories to understand their nature, functioning as daily practice, and the effects they have on our work lives, organizations, economies and societies. The book offers a toolbox to equip readers with a different approach to view management accounting and control systems. Utilising various sociological theories such as from labour process approaches to structuration and actor-network theories, utilising works of authors such as Pierre Bourdieu, Bruno Latour and Michael Foucault, the book combines real life organizational examples with highly speculative sociological theories producing a mix which is accessible and manageable.
