| Abstract: | The introductory essay reviews recent advances in the emergent field of social studies of finance (hereafter as: SSF), and sets out to illustrate how a closer engagement with SSF might benefit research interests in accounting and vice versa. It finally provides a sketch of how mutual engagements across the fields might be intensified in what is identified as an emerging accounting and finance track in the discourse of social science. The paper projects the prospects of a broader field of research exploring the use of financial numbers across social settings, markets, organizations and cultures, and considers the possibility of articulating a strong sociological programme of research. |
