European Accounting Review

Aims & Scope

European Accounting Review ( EAR ) is an international scholarly journal of the European Accounting Association (EAA).

Devoted to the advancement of accounting knowledge, EAR provides a forum for the publication of high-quality accounting research manuscripts.

The journal acknowledges its European origins and the variety of the European accounting research community.

Conscious of these origins, European Accounting Review emphasizes openness and flexibility, not only regarding the substantive issues of accounting research, but also with respect to paradigms, methodologies, and styles of conducting that research.

EAR is global in scope and welcomes submissions relating to any country or region as long as their relevance to an international audience is clearly communicated.
