Abstract
This comment explores the identity and politics of interpretive accounting research (IAR) by reflecting upon its positioning between, and overlap with, ‘mainstream’ and ‘critical’ accounting scholarship. It draws attention to the political struggle to define and occupy a distinctive academic space by considering what self-styled IAR researchers report as their accomplishments and how the distinctive contribution of IAR might be more closely specified and developed.
