This paper presents the main challenges in the production of scientific knowledge based on grounded theory in management accounting research. It presents a bibliographical study confronting grounded theory practices with the recommendations of its founders (Glaser and Strauss 1967; Strauss and Corbin 1998). We then shed light on the principles and issues in the discovery of grounded theory and offer insights into the variety of uses thereof in eleven papers claiming that position.
