Abstract

This case study reveals that accounting practices are not neutral in the interplay between organizations, society and the natural environment. This study explains the importance of studying accounting practices in its social and institutional context. Environmental accounting practices emerge in a setting characterized by the weak position of the organization and the need to negotiate with the environment. Conversely, this thesis rejects the notion that environmental accounting practices are an element of a process of organizational change.
