Welcome to IPA 2027

The ERGO Research Group is delighted to announce that the University of Burgos will host the 15th Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Accounting (IPA) Conference in July 2027.

The conference is an established forum for research into the social, political and organizational aspects of accounting. It brings together accounting scholars with broad social-science interests, drawing on a wide range of disciplinary perspectives — including anthropology, ecology, history, philosophy, political economy and sociology.

In line with previous editions, IPA 2027 aims to provide accounting researchers with a distinctive forum for further developing interdisciplinary debate on accounting research and its multidimensional impact on society, emphasizing methodological plurality, emerging paths and innovative research avenues.

We invite researchers from all areas of the social sciences and humanities to submit papers. The conference format is designed to give presenters a constructive forum to discuss their research: all papers undergo a double-blind review process; discussants present accepted papers, the author(s) respond, and an open discussion follows. The organizing committee therefore expects presenters of accepted papers to be willing to act as discussants, and submitting authors to act as reviewers.

The conference is preceded by the Emerging Scholars Colloquium (ESC), 12–13 July 2027. The ESC provides a unique space for early-career researchers to make their projects visible and receive feedback from prestigious faculty and outstanding doctoral students. We encourage PhD students conducting research with an interdisciplinary approach to submit their projects and participate.

Conference venue: Fórum Evolución — Palacio de Congresos de Burgos.
ESC venue: University of Burgos (Hospital del Rey) — University of Burgos.
