Abstract

ABSTRACT I have written about Rob before – about his colossal influence on social and environmental accounting research and practice and his immense contribution to accounting academia more broadly. Not only did Rob establish the Centre for Social and Environmental Accounting Research (CSEAR) and Social and Environmental Accountability Journal (SEAJ), but he was instrumental in establishing the British Accounting and Finance Association (BAFA) and The British Accounting Review (BAR). For these reasons alone, there are probably thousands of accounting scholars across the world who have benefited enormously from Rob’s trailblazing achievements. In this contribution, I want to remember Rob for another significant aspect of his scholarship. More specifically, I want to remember Rob as an inspirational accounting educator – as someone who cared deeply about his students, his subject and his profession.

“我们不需要思想控制”——罗伯·格雷反对会计教育中的“灌输”

摘要：我以前写过关于Rob的文章——关于他对社会和环境会计研究和实践的巨大影响，以及他对更广泛的会计学术界的巨大贡献。Rob不仅建立了社会与环境会计研究中心（CSEAR）和《社会与环境问责杂志》（SEAJ），而且在建立英国会计与金融协会（BAFA）和《英国会计评论》（BAR）方面发挥了重要作用。仅凭这些原因，世界各地可能就有成千上万的会计学者从Rob的开创性成就中受益匪浅。在这篇文章中，我想记住Rob在学术上的另一个重要方面。更具体地说，我想记住Rob是一位鼓舞人心的会计教育家，他非常关心自己的学生、学科和职业。

期刊介绍： Social and Environmental Accountability Journal (SEAJ) is the official Journal of The Centre for Social and Environmental Accounting Research. It is a predominantly refereed Journal committed to the creation of a new academic literature in the broad field of social, environmental and sustainable development accounting, accountability, reporting and auditing. The Journal provides a forum for a wide range of different forms of academic and academic-related communications whose aim is to balance honesty and scholarly rigour with directness, clarity, policy-relevance and novelty. SEAJ welcomes all contributions that fulfil the criteria of the journal, including empirical papers, review papers and essays, manuscripts reporting or proposing engagement, commentaries and polemics, and reviews of articles or books. A key feature of SEAJ is that papers are shorter than the word length typically anticipated in academic journals in the social sciences. A clearer breakdown of the proposed word length for each type of paper in SEAJ can be found here.
