Biography

Marcia Annisette is a professor at the Schulich School of Business, York University. She has significant experience in academia and has previously served as Associate Dean, Students, and Director of Schulich’s Master of Accounting Program. Her research primarily focuses on the social organization of the accountancy profession, examining the strategies that professional accounting bodies use to achieve monopoly and elite status in the market for accounting labor. Annisette's research is internationally expansive, including studies of the profession in Ireland, England, Trinidad and Tobago, and Canada. Her historical and sociological approach investigates how national bases of social exclusion—such as religion, social class, race, nationality, and immigration status—interact with professional structures to achieve professional closure.
