Resumo

Purpose The paper outlines my reactions on reading Tony Tinker's paper: “ The withering of criticism ”. Design/methodology/approach It describes how I read the paper with increasing feelings of frustration. Findings In the end I was quite negative about the prospects for critical accounting research and feel that this is unfortunately a lost opportunity. Originality/value I point out that Tinker's paper contains a number of new avenues to be explored and new insights which can be gained, but these are in danger of being lost amid continuing internecine strife.
