# Contemporary Accounting Research Workflow (car-workflow)
## Overview
This is the router. It does not replace any specialized skill; it tells you **which car-* skill to use right now** for your CAR manuscript.
Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as **Contemporary Accounting Research (CAR)** — the premier research journal owned and sponsored by the Canadian Academic Accounting Association (CAAA) and published by Wiley (partnership since 2010), appearing quarterly (Mar/Jun/Sep/Dec). CAR is deliberately **method-agnostic**: it welcomes "interesting and intellectually rigorous work in all topic areas of accounting, using any appropriate method, and based in any discipline or research tradition." In practice the published mix is dominated by quantitative archival/capital-markets work, but CAR is also one of the most receptive top-tier outlets for experimental, analytical/modeling, field, and qualitative accounting research — so the first routing question is always *which research tradition you are in*, because methods, analysis, and contribution framing diverge sharply across archival, experimental, analytical, and qualitative papers.
> Editorial team changes: Anup Srivastava (University of Calgary) is Editor-in-Chief, supported by Deputy EICs Elizabeth Demers, Alexander Edwards, and Hervé Stolowy and ~24 subject Editors; the EIC reviews all acceptance decisions. Verify the current masthead at caaa.ca/car-editorial-team. Fees, the Style Guide, and the Data Integrity & Code Sharing Policy change — confirm on the official CAAA/CAR pages.
## When to trigger
- "What should I do next?" with a half-built CAR manuscript
- You have a result but are unsure whether the contribution lands in accounting theory or practice
