Development of accounting thinking: accounting doing or knowing?
Abstract (en)
The work develops a reflection on the relationship between accounting “doing” and “knowing”, which has been a constant tension issue in the field of accounting academia in Colombia.
The paper discusses the importance of breaking the imagery whereby the accounting concept is technical and instrumental. is article presents the most representative schools of accounting thought and shows how all this knowledge is mainly derived from serious accounting research processes, which have set eyes on practical accounting problems that have occurred in the economic and organizational world throughout history, and how the accounting concept and theoretical framework has evolved, has presented new solutions for measurement, valuation, control among others. The above shows that accounting doing and knowing are two knowledge fields that have developed alongside.
