Guest Speakers

Theoretical, empirical and review papers are welcomed in all areas of
accounting, business and financial history. The conference provides
delegates with the opportunity of presenting and discussing, in an
informal setting, papers ranging from early working drafts to fully
developed manuscripts. The format of the conference allows
approximately 40 minutes for presentation and discussion in order to
help achieve worthwhile feedback from those attending. In the past,
many papers presented at Cardiff have subsequently appeared in print in
Accounting, Business and Financial History, edited by John Richard
(Dick) Edwards and Trevor Boyns, or in another of the full range of
international, refereed academic accounting, business and economic
history journals.
The conference will be held at Aberdare Hall, Cathays Park, Cardiff,
CF14 3UX, UK, from lunchtime on Thursday, 14 September 2006 to
mid-afternoon on Friday, 15 September 2006. The fully inclusive
conference fee (covering all meals, the conference
dinner on Thursday and accommodation) is £130.
