Anahtar Kelimeler:Accounting ethics education,Financial crisis,Point of view of academicians.

Özet: Although accounting ethics considered to have a philosophical perspective, it is a discipline which arose due to necessity. The point of views of the people of a country which experienced financial crises appeared due to the lack of accounting ethics and the people of a country which never needed such a discipline might be different. This study aims to point this difference. Totally 25 academicians with tha major of accounting, 10 from the universities located in United States of America and 15 from the universities located in Turkey, are interviewed. The results of the interviews proved that Turkish academicians do not pay as much attention as American academicians use to pay. This also proves that there is a relationship between the education structure of a country and the point of views of the academicians shaping this education.
