Professor Miller is a World-leading scholar in the sociology of accounting. He has pioneered a stream of research orientated to understanding ‘small management technologies’ such as accounting through organizational and sociological lenses. Having pointed out that what counts of accounting varies across space and time, he has undertaken empirical analyses e.g. of capital budgeting practices, relations between accounting and manufacturing spaces, the role of Road Maps in coordination investments across firms, the hybridization between professional and accounting practices in public sector institutions. Together, these accumulate to theory about the relationships between accounting, organizing and economizing.
