On one hand, accounting is influenced by societies, organizations, and managements, but it has an
effect on social change as a facilitator or an obstacle, on the other. For accounting to secure full accountability
to the society and nature, it must first be freed from the hegemony of financialisation. This
needs to acknowledge the fact that financial capitalism is not sustainable and it is possible to construct
another world which is not under the control of financial capital. Otherwise, financial/financialized
accounting has metamorphosed into pseudo social, environmental and green accountings. However,
this kind of accountings could not regulate and create more transparent organizations in conformity
with the public and nature’s interests and go beyond public relations and propaganda studies of bureaucratic,
hierarchical, monopolistic and oligopolistic organizations. Critical thought argues that before
or simultaneously with constructing brave new accountings, brave new societies, organizations, and
managements have to be formed, which requires both technical and social, political, historical dimensions
to be taken into account. While literally imagining social, green and humanistic accountings,
more and more time and effort should be used within the unlimited scope of research extending from
structuralist and humanistic paradigms and practices which place as much importance on the humans’
power for making history as existing social and organizational structures, since in the final analysis all
social structures including organizations and accounting are human artifacts and can be changed by
the humans’ free will.

ELEŞTİREL DÜŞÜNCE VE CESUR YENİ MUHASEBELER

Öz

Muhasebe uygulamaları bir yandan toplumlardan, örgütlerden, yönetimlerden etkilenmekte, diğer
yandan daha adaletli bir toplum, daha eşitlikçi örgüt ve daha demokratik yönetim oluşumunu hızlandırarak
ya da engelleyerek sosyal değişimi etkilemektedir. Muhasebenin topluma ve doğaya tam hesap
verilebilirliği sağlaması için öncelikle finansallaşmanın boyunduruğundan kurtulması gerekmektedir.
Bu ise finansal kapitalizmin sürdürülebilir olmadığını ve finansal sermayenin kontrolünde olmayan
başka bir dünya kurmanın mümkün olduğunu kabul etmeyi gerektirmektedir. Tersi durumda finansal/
finansallaşmış muhasebe sözde sosyal, çevresel, yeşil muhasebelere dönüşme becerisini göstermektedir.
Ancak bu tür muhasebeler örgütlerin toplum ve doğa yararına saydamlaştırılması ve düzenlenmesini
mümkün kılamamakta ve bürokratik, hiyerarşik, tekelci ve oligopolcü örgütlerin halkla ilişkiler
ve propaganda çalışmaları olmaktan öteye geçememektedir. Eleştirel düşünce, cesur yeni muhasebeler
yaratmadan önce ya da böyle bir çabayla eşzamanlı olarak cesur yeni toplumlar, örgütler ve yönetimler
yaratmak gerektiğini, bunların da hem teknik, hem de sosyal, politik, tarihsel boyutların dikkate
alınmasını gerektireceğini savunmaktadır. Gerçek anlamda sosyal, yeşil ve insancıl muhasebeler
tasarlarken mevcut sosyal ve örgütsel yapılar kadar insanların tarih yapma gücünü de dikkate alan
yapısalcı ve hümanist düşünce ve uygulamalar arasında uzanan geniş araştırma alanında daha çok
zaman ve emek harcamak gerekmektedir, çünkü son tahlilde örgütler ve muhasebe de dahil tüm sosyal
yapılar insan ürünü olmakta ve insanın özgür iradesiyle değiştirilebilmektedir.
