Abstract or Summary
Is the Labour Process Theory (LPT) a carry-over of historical cost accounting development, social and political factors of the time, inherited by contemporary business practice? Or is LPT relevant with the changing business environment? This paper discusses the relevance of LPT in the 21st century, placing emphasis on the New Zealand experience. Labour process theory was developed within the cost accounting environment. Development of ‘new waves’ of labour process theory manifest themselves in the current environment and within management accounting. Labour process theory is a fact in the 21st century. It remains dominant in the manufacturing industry and is apparent in many sectors of the service industry.
