Excellence award for professor's paper

A paper written by Professor Christine Cooper (Accounting & Finance) has been selected as one of the 50 best articles published in 2009 in management, and has accordingly won an Emerald Management Reviews Citation of Excellence award.

Now in their 14th year, these distinguished annual awards recognise the 50 most outstanding articles published by the top 400 management journals in the world.

Professor Cooper's paper was "US Imperialism in Action: An Professor CooperAudit-based Appraisal of the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq" and was published in Critical Perspective on Accounting (volume 20, issue 6).

Debbie Spurgeon, Emerald Executive Editor, said, "Receiving a Citation of Excellence award is a truly prestigious achievement. There are over 15,000 article reviews added annually to the database and so being recognised as one of the top 50 is a real accolade."
