Special issue: Women and accounting's past
S. Sian et al.
Abstract
Throughout history, women have been healers and caregivers, playing multiple roles within and outside family structures; they have been regarded as 'wise women' and hunted as 'witches' (Cooperman Nadelson and Bernstein, 2015). Women are the backbone of families, communities and economic development. However, the 'female' as a subject of analysis has not been witnessed as a transformative one in terms of writing, sources and theorisation (Pedersen, 2000). Accounting history is not unique among sub-disciplines of history or accounting in its relative marginalisation of gender studies (Jesser, 1972) and under-representation of women
