Critical theory is concerned with enhancing individual wellbeing
and autonomy through societal critique that has its origins in
philosophy, sociology and political economics. Critical social science
is the application of a critical theoretic within a social‐science
domain. Accounting is a technology but it is not ideologically sterile.
Critical social science applies critical‐theory methodology in order to
make evident the ideological base of manifestations in social science as
they lead to alienation, oppression and emancipation. This critical
social science critique is applied in order to make evident the
ideological base of such manifestations in, or related to, accounting.
