Abstract

Accounting is the communication of financial or other management information for the purpose of decision-making by investors, creditors, or managers. Accounting information is created in a cultural context and is transmitted to the receiver and processed in a manner according to certain cultural norms which have been influenced by history and other social realities. This paper will examine certain prior work that combines culture, history, and accounting. The primary contribution will be a discussion of how Hofestede&s theory can provide insight into Russian culture and the relationship between accounting, culture, and history in Russia.
