Timely and reliable accounting information is essential. Accounting data and their interpretation must be above suspicion, and to be sure of that, corporations and other users of accounting information must be certain that accountants subscribe to and practice a morality set to high standards. What these standards are, and how they are deficient, distorted, and sometimes even fallacious, are themes explored here. Riahi-Belkaoui leads readers through the complexities of five aspects of accounting morality: fairness, ethics, honesty, social responsibility, and truth. Professionals, scholars, and students are here provided with a clear, pragmatic understanding of what morality in accounting is, or should be, and new reasons to appreciate its essentiality.

An important but usually overlooked variable that affects the process and product of accounting is culture. Consensus on what constitutes proper accounting methods and behavior varies among countries, and it is this cultural relativism and its impacts that Riahi-Belkaoui explores here. His purpose is to elaborate on the nature of cultural relativism in accounting and in the interpretation of accounting data. He thus shows the way culture determines accounting judgments, and explains the intercultural differences in the perception of accounting concepts, and in the field's self-regulation internationally. His point is that accounting is actually a cultural rather than a technical process, and that professionals as well as academics should be aware of this. A challenging, useful discussion for teachers, graduate students, and accounting practitioners, particularly in international settings.
