Neste paper procuramos debater alguns dos problemas que afetam a pesquisa positivista em contabilidade, e como a adoção da teoria organizacional baseada em métodos qualitativos pode frutiferamente contribuir para o avanço da pesquisa nesta área. Para este fim nos baseamos em pesquisas que conduzimos em hospitais públicos Portugueses para discutir como a incorporação de questões de poder, empreendedorismo institucional, hibridização, lógicas institucionais e trabalho institucional em trabalhos de contabilidade incentivam explicações mais profundas da prática contábil.
