Further, workplace discrimination and devalued education and experience negatively influence career satisfaction. However, ethnic differences exert no significant effect on career satisfaction.

Studies have focused attention on single instruments or processes, such as budgets, forecasts, risk maps, or risk silos, and the ways these shape the time horizons of organizational actors. Yet, we still know relatively little about the role of time in shaping the “dynamics of (dis)integrated risk management” (Arena, Arnaboldi & Palermo, 2017). To explore the notion of temporality and its role in shaping the contours of ERM, we investigated a Brazilian sugar-ethanol conglomerate (Group) and its use of ERM during a period of change and accelerated expansion between 2008 and 2015. To better understand how different temporalities were embedded and performed in ERM arrangements across Group, we draw upon the works of social theorist Theodore Schatzki (2002, 2010) as well as literature in accounting. In examining ERM through a temporal lens, this paper makes two contributions. First, we complement previous studies on the everyday practices underlying enterprise risk management by focusing on how temporality shapes the trajectories and limits of ERM practice. Second, we contribute to research interested in exploring how temporality shapes the situated functionality of accounting (Ahrens & Chapman, 2007) by highlighting how multiple representations of the past, present, and future are simultaneously implicated in risk management practice across organizational sites. Overall, our findings suggest that without a clear understanding of how different and sometimes conflicting time-horizons shape particular practices of risk management, it is rather difficult to assess whether ERM can become sensitive to longer-term risks.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48078,"journal":{"name":"Critical Perspectives on Accounting","volume":"99 ","pages":"Article 102363"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49665401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We focus on the way that social elements of performance, social attributes and embodied perceptions of a healthy body are accounted for in organizations, paying attention to employer-initiated accountability practices and employees’ responses which we term employee-adjusted accountability practices. We find that employees with celiac disease attempt to embody an able body, hiding experiences with the disease and can do violence to their own bodies in the name of accountability. In particular, drawing on <span>Messner (2009)</span>, who articulated the experience of ethical violence on the accountable self in organizations, our findings show that the accountable non-able body self can enact physical violence to the body in an attempt to meet accountability expectations. We contribute to a growing body of literature in critical accounting that researches the way that accounting practices restrict the experiences of the accountable embodied self.

As elaborated by Miranda <span>Fricker (2010)</span>, Western White male actors traditionally dominate knowledge production; therefore, ChatGPT and other LLMs are inclined to reproduce patriarchal perspectives as universal understandings of the World. Our commentary applies this logic to accounting practice and research in Africa, and asserts that epistemic injustice, resulting from colonization and racism, means that ontological and epistemological approaches situated in the accounting needs and experiences of African communities are missing from or poorly articulated by ChatGPT and other LLMs. If LLMs are to attain legitimacy as (ethical) sources of knowledge, regulation must be enforced to ensure transparency—as a foundation for promoting pluriversality and eliminating epistemic injustice.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48078,"journal":{"name":"Critical Perspectives on Accounting","volume":"99 ","pages":"Article 102735"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140879521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, it analyses the role of accounting in the web of domination and power relations of a foreign company involved in the private management of a monopoly. To that end, it examines the historical case of the private management of the Spanish telephone monopoly at a time when the Spanish concessionary company was a subsidiary of the US multinational, International Telephone and Telegraph Corporation. The analysis of the case shows that the accounting was embedded within a geopolitical system of knowledge that strengthened a colonial matrix of power resulting in the domination of US capital over the Spanish state. This research contributes to a better understanding of how the colonial matrix of power operates through the subalternisation of the population not only in the Global South but also in Europe, imposing the rhetoric of modernity (conversion, progress and development) and exporting it to other latitudes by claiming its universality.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48078,"journal":{"name":"Critical Perspectives on Accounting","volume":"99 ","pages":"Article 102734"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1045235424000339/pdfft?md5=ae97b97c771833ac4dd4aa92aa13f67a&pid=1-s2.0-S1045235424000339-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140894975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
