During the second decade of the XXI century, several contextual forces have changed the way in which firms interact with environment. The economic and financial crisis, the development of technologies, the convergence between differ-ent communication channels and the spread of social networks are just some of the forces that determine a quick and radical change in the way employees and firms look at the future and interact each other. This contribution focuses on the meaning of the word “open” as one of the key-words of this period and highlights how the open society affects accounting infor-mation systems, as systems processing information to support strategic decisions in such a complicated environment.

Abstract
During the second decade of the XXI century, several contextual forces have changed the way in which firms interact with environment. The economic and financial crisis, the development of technologies, the convergence between differ-ent communication channels and the spread of social networks are just some of the forces that determine a quick and radical change in the way employees and firms look at the future and interact each other. This contribution focuses on the meaning of the word “open” as one of the key-words of this period and highlights how the open society affects accounting infor-mation systems, as systems processing information to support strategic decisions in such a complicated environment.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
