Literature review - If you like I can email the two articles to make it easy. There is no option to upload and I tried to copy past but the word restriction didnt let me. However, the articles may also be found online but might need paid access.

Review the following two articles

Article 1: Lamberton, G. (2005). Sustainability accounting a brief history and conceptual framework, Accounting Forum, 29(1), 7-26.

Article 2: DeZoort, T., Harrison, P. and Taylor, M. (2006). Accountability and auditors materiality judgements: The effects of differential pressure strength on conservatism, variability, and effort, Accounting, Organizations and Society, 31, 373-390.

Which article is of normative accounting theory, which one is of positive accounting theory. Why?

Which research is conceptual, which is empirical?

What is the contribution made by Lamberton (2005) (Article 1) to accounting knowledge? Make a brief explanation.

(You need to identify the old knowledge stated or implicated in this article, and then study what is the new knowledge that this article has achieved and presented).
