Abstract

It is contended that positive accounting theory cannot explain the accounting choices of organizations. This theory is characterized by the simplification of the motives attributed to managers and politicians, of methodology, and of the nature of social dynamics. It is argued that such a framework does not fully reflect the complex and rich social contradictions created in the interaction of crisis avoidance in a basically disequilibrial capitalist society. An alternative paradigm is proposed, which is a neo-Marxist theory of crisis management based on the work of Habermas (1986, 1979). This approach is applied in the analysis of the accounting choices of British Telecom and British Gas. The study's findings are discussed.

Subjects
OAO Gazprom -- Accounting and auditing, Gas utilities -- Accounting and auditing, Regional focus/area studies
Abstract

The Russian Duma has agreed that natural monopolies Unified Power System Russian Joint-Stock Co, Gazprom, Transneft and the Ministry of Railroads will be audited. This move is likely to have been prompted mainly by a desire to find large amounts of money for pensions and wages. The government has also approved a programme for the structural reorganization of Gazprom, which will now be responsible for defining its own place and role in the country's economy. This move may pave the way for competition in the long term.

12. ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN EXTERNAL ACCOUNTABILITY AND ACCOUNTING IN PRIVATIZED INDUSTRIES: A CASE STUDY OF BRITISH GAS

Author

Subjects
Centrica PLC -- Accounting and auditing, Responsibility -- Research, Accounting -- Research, Gas utilities -- Accounting and auditing, Privatization -- Laws, regulations and rules, Government, Political science
Abstract

This study investigates the consequences of regulation for organizational and accounting change in privatized industries by means of a case study of the gas industry, with particular emphasis on issues of accountability and the role of accounting information. The paper extends Stewart and Ranson's (1988) discussion of the distinctive conditions which apply to public and private sector organizations by highlighting an important interim phase in relation to privatized industries, where public service obligations coexist to varying degrees with private sector objectives. The extension of their framework of public and private sector models to include a new `commercial' model provides the basis for an analytical framework encompassing the three cultures -- that is, public service, commercial and competition -- which is used to understand organizational change in the gas industry.
