CALL FOR PAPERS: "Accounting in a changing world"—Meditari Accountancy Research Conference 2025

The Meditari Accountancy Research Conference 2025 will be held at the University of Pisa, Pisa, Italy, on 4-5 September 2025. The theme will be "Accounting in a changing world".

We are pleased to announce a conference of Meditari Accountancy Research on 4-5 September 2025 in Pisa, a historical city rich in monuments, museums and magnificent buildings of immense artistic value, including the world-renowned Miracle Square. Meditari Accountancy Research enjoys significant international reputation, it publishes around 90 articles a year and is ranked 8th among accounting journals by Google Scholar, and 20th by Scopus (CiteScore = 7.8). The conference will stimulate reflection on the interrelation of accounting with organisational and social change. In particular, the conference will trace the two-way connection of accounting with a changing world. On the one hand it will show how accounting can help manage, nurture or inhibit organisational and social change. On the other it will highlight the processes of change within accounting and how such change is triggered by the evolution of the external environment. The conference offers an opportunity for accounting scholars to investigate the major breaking points that have marked the progress of our society, such as political, economic, social and environmental crises, digital transformation and generation shifts, by adopting both contemporary and historical perspectives.

Although contributions covering a wide range of accounting topics, along with various methodological and theoretical frameworks, will be welcomed, authors are encouraged to align their work with the theme of the conference.
