Abstract

This issue aims to reflect on the current state of research in the broad field of social and environmental accounting/accountability (SEA) as well as consider its future. In this editorial we introduce the topic of the special issue, outline the contributions that make up its content and offer some thoughts on the future of SEA research. Some observations as to current and emerging trends in the field are first offered and reflected on before the contributions provided by each of the papers is presented. We conclude by offering some thoughts on the future of SEA research and ultimately call for more (engaged/ reflective/ critical/ radical) research in this field which is motivated by, and seeks to address, the catastrophic social, ecological and economic devastation that defines our current state.
