Abstract: Abstract This book adopts a critical and interpretative research approach to the study of four merger attempts and comprises part of the “new accounting history” paradigm (Fleischman et al., Accounting History 1:55–75, 1996; Miller et al., Accounting, Organisations and Society 16:395–403, 1991; Parker, Accounting History 4:11–42, 1999). The study of accounting historyAccounting history and accounting institutions makes an important contribution to the accounting literature in particular and other literature in general because the importance of historical understanding applies to accounting as much as to other fields of human endeavour.
