Abstract

The positivist paradigm has been the predominant line of thought in the accounting research made around the world, and in Brazil it is not diferent. However, the adoption of the positivism in Brasil has not occured accompained by deep epistemological discussions. Thus, the present thesis has the objective of laying the foundations of this affirmative and demonstrate the problems that derive from this reality. Also, the thesis describes and proposes the adoption of different epistemological paradigms in the sense of broadening the uderstanding of what is and how is the accounting research in Brazil. (AU)
