Abstract
Social and environmental justice across generations is a fundamental attribute of sustainable development. In this article, which is also a call for papers for a future theme in Public Money & Management (PMM), we develop our case for further research on how governments and public service organizations seek to address sustainable development in their decision-making processes. We believe that accounting for social and environmental aspects is an underdeveloped area of research and practice that is worthy of further critical enquiry. We therefore call on researchers and practitioners to submit their research to a themed issue of PMM on managing and accounting for sustainable development in public services.

A theme on ‘Managing and accounting for sustainable development across generations in public services’ (theme editors: Suzana Grubnic, Ian Thomson and Georgios Georgakopoulos) will be published in PMM, Vol. 37, No. 4 (July 2017).
