Why is it important?
This research was related to the critical debates of some social scientists who argued that interpretive research is in a "crisis of validity" as there is a lack of clarity or consensus about how it should be evaluated and about its paradigmatic consistency. At least in the field of management accounting, empirical evidence has, however, been limited.
