ABSTRACT

This bibliography provides the reader with a comprehensive reference tool that will enhance understanding of methodological issues and enable the user to employ research methods appropriate to their subject of study. It also provides accounting historians a comprehensive data base for the development of papers addressing methodological issues in an accounting history context.

Access to this type of resource is particularly crucial to the development of accounting history research since the number of papers dealing with methodological issues published in accounting history literature is very small. Hence the references in this bibliography are drawn from the literature of general history, economic and business history, legal and social history and philosophy. The scope and range of its contents are broad – references are taken from texts as well as papers published in over 450 journals.

(C) EVIDENCE AND SOURCES The answer to the question as to what constitutes valid evidence in historical research may vary considerably with methodological approach. Thus not only may advocates of different historical methodologies interpret the same source data differently, but they may admit as evidence widely differing categories of data. Indeed, the spectrum of historical source data may range from the most indirect data - of valid historical

including even fiction - to purely quantifiable, numerical data. Conversely, the source data an historian admits as valid evidence influences to a considerable extent the very nature of his or her study. The writings on historical evidence and sources whose titles appear in this list represent varying positions on the matter evidence and describe a variety of approaches to historical source analysis.

QUANTITATIVE METHODS Quantitative methods in historical research (cliometrics) range from simple data summarization to sophisticated statistical applications such as regression analysis. The early applications of quantitative methods in historical research represented a radical departure from traditional intuitive methods and occasioned considerable controversy, especially in the United States in the 1960s. In recent years, however, cliometrics has become an established methodology in historical research and the controversy has abated. Most discussion today centres on the extent to which statistical data alone may be relied upon to interpret history. Can one generalize on the basis of raw statistical data itself in the field of history or is statistics at best a of data, cliometrics has most frequently been of ordinary

corroborative tool. With regard to the subject matter to which it applies, since quantitative methods presuppose a mass used to investigate broad social structures - i.e. the social experience people - rather than the effect of major historical events.
