Abstract:
This paper replies to points raised by the editors of the ABS Guide, Huw Morris, Charles Harvey, Aidan Kelly and Michael Rowlinson (2011) Accounting Education: an international journal, 20(6), pp. 561--573) in response to a paper published in a previous issue of Accounting Education (Hussain, S. (2011) Accounting Education: an international journal, 20(6), pp. 545--559). It also makes reference to a paper by Alan Sangster (2011) Accounting Education: an international journal, 20(6), pp. 575--580), which appeared in that same issue of the journal, detailing the personal experiences of an accounting researcher working in the specialisms of both accounting education and accounting history.
