Abstract

Much has been happening these days throughout Financial World, the complexity of Ac-counting processes, financial systems had dwarfed the efforts of regulators. In the advent of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and other advance data mining interventions still the problem is persisting. With this view, the present paper which is in form of a discussion/conceptual paper which will explain the need of introducing Altruistic and pluralistic approaches in the pedagogy of teaching Finance and Accounting courses. The paper heavily stresses on some of the contribution of authors in the direction of symbolic interactionism, hermeneutics, phenomenology and other qualitative dimensions of subjects in Finance and Accounting to create sense of “humanistic” ideas of the students graduating in Finance and related fields in the coming future. The paper earmarked that the modern business education including finance and accounting courses are heavily tilted towards capitalist themes and must be readdressed to include highly local, social and cultural dimensions.
