The objective of this study was to research, a decade after Independence, the attitudes of a number of key actors in the accountancy profession in Zimbabwe to the integration and advancement of Blacks. A wide spectrum of views and opinions was sought, ranging from those of black students on the one hand to those of partners in accountancy firms on the other. The findings suggest that a great deal of work in the area of racial integration still needs to be done before it can be claimed that socalled black advancement in the accountancy profession has been successful. In particular, it would appear that many Whites still retain negative expectations of Blacks and that little is being done to actively understand and redress the major barriers to integration. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Asian Review of Accounting Emerald Publishing

Abstract

The objective of this study was to research, a decade after Independence, the attitudes of a number of key actors in the accountancy profession in Zimbabwe to the integration and advancement of Blacks. A wide spectrum of views and opinions was sought, ranging from those of black students on the one hand to those of partners in accountancy firms on the other. The findings suggest that a great deal of work in the area of racial integration still needs to be done before it can be claimed that socalled black advancement in the accountancy profession has been successful. In particular, it would appear that many Whites still retain negative expectations of Blacks and that little is being done to actively understand and redress the major barriers to integration.
