Produktbeschreibung

Sustainability Reporting and Integrated Reporting deal with organizations' articulation and disclosure of their social and environmental impact on various groups in society. This book examines the accounting involved in the collection and analysis of data, control processes over the data, how information is reported to external parties, and the assurance of the information being reported. It provides a broad and comprehensive review of sustainability and integrated reporting, focusing on the interconnection between different elements of these topics, often dealt with in isolation by existing texts. Consequently, the book is a comprehensive reference for students of sustainability reporting.

Rezensionen

'This excellent publication on sustainability accounting and integrated reporting has been edited by two senior academics in the field. The various chapters provide interesting insights into sustainability accounting and integrated reporting starting from voluntary external disclosure, stakeholder engagement, organizational focus and finally, assurance. The book testifies that the notion of integrated reporting and sustainability accounting is vibrant and offers various perspectives about and to organisations and society to manage and disclose valuable capital, other than just financial capital. This book is a valuable step for anyone who wishes to participate in dialogs about sustainability accounting and integrated reporting theoretically and practically. A must for scholars, students, practitioners and policy makers who are working in these areas.' - Professor James Guthrie, Distinguished Professor of Accounting, Department of Accounting & Corporate Governance, Macquarie University
