“…In this section on the impact of researchers’ activities in the subfield of environmental accounting, we use citation totals as a metric to rank scholars following an approach which has previously been implemented in the accounting field (Metcalf et al , 2015; Myers et al , 2016; Nuttall et al , 2018). More specifically, we analyze the publication outlets and citations of the 50 most cited accounting researchers career wise according to Ioannidis et al (2020).…”

Purpose This paper aims to conduct an analysis of management research based on impact measures, with a focus on the accounting discipline and the environment theme. Using author and journal data as units of analysis, this study seek to determine the representation of environmental accounting researchers among the most cited accounting authors and the consideration given to environmental issues in the impact assessment of management journals. Design/methodology/approach This study collects and quantitatively analyzes the publications and citations of the 50 most cited accounting authors and run a principal component analysis on a collection of journal-centered indicators and rankings. Findings This study finds that – among the most cited accounting authors – environmental accounting researchers hold a relatively influential position although their research is mainly published in non-top-tier accounting journals. This study also documents that some environment-themed journals suffer from significant disadvantages in peer-reviewed journal rankings. Practical implications Environmental accounting researchers are likely to disseminate their research in other media than in top-tier journals. This may have an impact on the academic viability of this field. Social implications Despite their strong connection to societal issues, some research themes could become understudied if journal rankings are not able to consider publication outlets in a more comprehensive way. There is a strong need for a broader consideration of scientific production, particularly in relation to its overall societal impact. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first time an empirical analysis, combining author and journal data and documenting such findings, has been presented for publication. This study means to provide some descriptive insights into where environmental accounting researchers and environment-themed journals stand.

Considerable changes in socio-economic environment determine a new informational landscape which is primarily concerned with updating of the accounting. Over the recent decades a notable decrease in the relevance of accounting has been generating a need for rethinking its outlines in both scientific and practical discourse. This article is motivated by theoretical heterogeneity in accounting theory, criticism inside and outside the accounting community and even doubts in the future of this profession. The paper examines the prospects and the drivers of the accounting conceptual domain, its conceptual field and methodology updating in the new economy. The ways current challenges may change research paradigms and pluralize approaches to the theoretical background and the object field of accounting in the Russian-language academia and practice are considered. Approaches to problem solving in the Russian-language and international scientific accounting research are compared and opportunities for accounting paradigm upgrading in the modern economy are explored. Keywords: accounting, paradigm, digital economy, information, methodology, subject field, approach.
