Legalistic culture
Society is increasingly being confronted with a legalistic culture that exists in corporations which seem to take the attitude that law can be interpreted to suit their own ends,that is,in such a manner that if the interpretation says that they are not breaking the law then it is fine for them to conduct the action.This would imply that corporations take a narrow legalistic view when conducting their business; if they are not breaking the law,then apparently everything else is “up for grabs” in business,regardless of the consequences to society.It is of little wonder that business and accounting scandals continue to flourish,despite the reforms by profession and authoritative bodies; we are living in a society of people who know how to “get around the law” without actually breaking the law.
An interesting point was raised by Hastings (2002) with regards to the legalistic culture.He notes that since the early 1980s,management styles have become more aggressive over transactions not covered by specific accounting rules.Managers have apparently adopted a permissive approach to accounting treatments and challenge auditors by arguing,“[s]how me where it says I can’t” (p.57).Percy (in Bruce,2002),who sits on a joint Treasury and Department of Trade & Industry Committee,notes that there were signs that the United States’ standard-setters would like to move towards the United Kingdom concept of a principles-based approach rather than a rules-based approach.He also notes that the obsession with legally defined rules in a lawyer-dominated society would make it difficult to prefer substance over form.Davies (also in Bruce) reinforces this view when he observes,“[l]awyers make very good lawyers; they don’t make very good accountants” (p.3).Jones (quoted in Bruce),a national audit technical partner with Deloitte & Touche in London,says,“[i]t will mean more rules linked to a litigious environment” and “more explanation is a better route than more regulators and more rules” (p.3).Bruce (2002) subsequently points out that in the United States,accountants rely on rules which can be pushed to the limit by companies and their lawyers with the result that accountants will always come off second-best in an argument.He says that the rules-driven approach in the United States means that a partner spends more time at the lower levels of a company dealing with rules rather than in the boardrooms saying,“[t]his won’t do” (p.2).Dodsworth's (chief executive officer of Camico (California) quoted in Ruquet,2002) observations are:
Ultimately,CPAs must exercise their professional judgement and walk away from clients “who make them nervous”.There are a lot of areas where the rules are not hard and fast and require professional judgement.Our advice is that if it gets to the point,what they want to do is the right thing and be able to say good-bye to a client.(p.15)
