International Journal of Accounting, Finance and Social Taxation - IJAFST publish research that advances our understanding of Accounting, Finance and Social Taxation over a diverse range of topics and research methods. IJAFST articles deal with most areas of Accounting, including Finance, Social Taxation, Social and Environmental Accounting and Management Accounting. The Journal welcomes research that utilizes a wide range of basic and applied research methods, including archival, experimental, survey, analytical, and case study.

The Journal's founding goal was to bridge the gap between academic researchers and practitioners by publishing papers that are relevant to the development of the field of Accounting, Finance and Social Taxation. Within this context, submissions are expected to make a contribution to the academic accounting literature, including as appropriate as the international accounting literature typically found in IJAFST and other primary European based international accounting journals as well as in leading US, Australian, and Canadian academic accounting journals. Applied research findings, critiques of current accounting practices and the measurement of their effects on business decisions, and research-based essays on world affairs which affect accounting practice are all within the scope of the journal.

Although the Journal welcomes a wide range of topics, papers may be rejected without being sent out for formal review if the paper is deemed outside of the scope of the journal, too narrow in interest or scope, of unacceptable written quality, or as not sufficiently adhering to the style requirements as outlined in the Guide for Authors. We strongly urge all authors interested in IJAFST to carefully read the Guide to Authors and to examine some of its more recently published articles.
