Description

Environmental and social accounting has the potential to contribute to a just and green community. This can be achieved by reforming accounting to consider how the art of interpretation puts us directly in touch with the natural world. Ideas from Donald Davidson, Richard Rorty, and Charles Taylor extend our understanding of accounting to create, nurture and report values to relevant publics. This is a theoretical journey that compares traditional accounting with recent developments in interpretivist political philosophy.
