Sidrea International online workshop

The main goal of the workshop is to investigate new perspectives and challenges of accountability about controversial Industries and outline possible scenarios of its development in interdisciplinary perspectives. Especially: Accounting, Economics and ethics ones.

The idea is that there are some situations, especially at present in the Coronavirus pandemia, in which it is very difficult to speak about accountability and there are a lot of ethical implications. Especially when there are economic mechanisms that try to follow the patterns of development and money drain. One of them is about the "poison" that creeps in economy through various forms of "addiction". The different forms of "addiction" create social costs that are downloaded on the community in the name of pure profit. Thus, they develop forms of “ill” economy. There are some sectors that are considered “controversial industries” and are involving: gambling, tobaco, some areas of tourism; oil, etc… It may be more difficult to speak about social accounting and accountability as emancipatory change process and disclosure if companies endorse and develop behaviors that destabilize the development of civil economy.

The SIW proposal will give the opportunity to interact with foreign and Italian Scholars, Phd students and practitioners about relationship among: accounting, economics and ethics in friedly climate.

The Workshop is promoted by the Center of Advanced Studies in Tourism - CAST with the support of the Società Italiana dei Docenti di Ragioneria e di Economia Aziendale (SIDREA).

The workshop will take place on May 19th 2020 and will be held at University of Bologna -Rimini Campus under the patronage of: Department of Management and Department of Economics- University of Bologna -Rimini Campus and Emilia Romagna Region, Social Innovation Prize competition 2019 (2-5pm).

Scholars, post-doctoral researchers, PhD students and professionals are invited to submit their working papers and research proposals to be considered for presentation.
