The 1999 annual conference for the Academy of Accounting Historians will be held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada from November 18 to 20 at the Westin Harbour Castle Hotel. The conference theme is “The Rhetoric of Accounting History: Conversations Across Time and Space.” In accordance with past practices, most accounting history topics are considered for presentation on the program. The 1999 conference will, as the theme implies, place emphasis on critical analysis. Researchers from related areas that use historical accounting data are being encouraged to participate. For the first time, some sessions will be dedicated to the presentation of cases and papers dealing with the use of historical accounting cases for teaching.

All papers will be double-blind reviewed. The deadline for submission is June 15, 1999. The results of the reviews will be provided to authors by September 1. For information or to submit a paper, please contact Professor Gary Spraakman, Program Committee Chair, 1999 AAH Research Conference, Atkinson College, York University, Toronto, ON, M3J 1P3, Canada; Telephone: (416) 736-5210; Fax: (416) 736-5963; Email: GaryS@YorkU.ca.
