This article illustrates issues tackled by studies of accounting thought and singles out the different methodological alternatives followed by accounting scholars when developing researches on these topics. It shows how, in these studies, researches might focus on analysing a concept, an author, a classic work, a particular problem, or they might as well examine the universal accounting literature. As for the methodology used, authors worked with conceptual history, social history and sociology of knowledge. By explicating author's decisions in these dimensions, it aims at facilitating the work of researchers working with these studies in the future.
