Abstract

This paper aims to investigate natural resources from an accounting perspective, focusing on their definition and classification, recognition criteria and disclosures. A manual content analysis was carried out on documents issued by both international and national standard setters. Findings are discussed through the dialogic accounting perspective while considering the need to hold public-sector entities accountable for the use of natural resources and taking into account calculative reasoning and technologies.
