The present study aims to contribute to an understanding of the complexity of lobbying activities within the accounting standard-setting process in the UK. The paper reports detailed content analysis of submission letters to four related exposure drafts. These preceded two accounting standards that set out the concept of control used to determine the scope of consolidation in the UK, except for reporting under international standards. Regulation on the concept of control provides rich patterns of lobbying behaviour due to its controversial nature and its significance to financial reporting. Our examination is conducted by dividing lobbyists into two categories, corporate and non-corporate, which are hypothesised (and demonstrated) to lobby differently. In order to test the significance ...

THE Empire is suffering yet another posthumous assault. Its assailants have some new ammunition, dredged from documents just released by the National Archives, which detail the nasty expedients employed occasionally when British power was challenged. The enemies of the Empire imagine they have a treasure chest brim- full of hard evidence that will prove it was irredeemably wicked.

The Evangelical conversion of Gypsy groups worldwide has attracted the attention of ethnologists, anthropologists, ethnomusicologists, historians and sociologists. The problems discussed in the literature are connected with the influence of the 'new' religion on the way of life and identity of the converts. What are the changes that the believers undergo in their everyday lives? How do they celebrate holidays and festive occasions like weddings? What is happening with the group and the religious and ethnic self-awareness of individuals? Does Evangelism lead to a kind of unification of the culture of separate Gypsy groups, which in turn results in the loss of part of the identity of the communities? Bulgaria is an interesting example of the spread of Evangelical Christianity among Gypsy ...

Intangibles are ideas or knowledge about the natural (physical and biological) and socio-cultural worlds that enable people to better accomplish their goals, both in primitive societies and in modern economies. Intangibles include basic research and technology improvements, as well as knowledge to better organise exchange and production, and over time become inextricably embedded in improved tangible assets. Accounting intangibles are legally excludable subsets of economic intangibles, which in turn are the subsets of cultural intangibles that can be used to create tradable goods or services. Because economic intangibles are cumulative, synergistic, and frequently inseparable from other tangible assets and/or economic intangibles not owned by any single entity, it is usually futile to e...

The demise of the classical programme of financial accounting research is generally represented as a progressive development. This paper argues that the academy's abandonment of classical methods was justified neither by the fruitfulness of post-classical programmes nor by their incontestable epistemological superiority. Rather, what occurred was a turn to mainstream social science, reflecting sociological characteristics of the UK financial accounting research community. The paper concludes with a call for a revival of the classical programme.

The Secret History of the CIA, Afghanistan, and bin Laden, from the Soviet Invasion to September 10, 2001 (Penguin, 2004) is the most comprehensive survey so far of America's exact relationship with Osama bin Laden and his fellow Arab Afghans in the two decades preceding 9/11. Why the West is Losing the War on Terror (Brassey's, 2004), is to construct Osama bin Laden as just such an enemy: rational not mad, driven by specific grievances such as America's support for Israel and the presence of American troops on Saudi soil.
