Plagiarism

Plagiarism

The “stealing and publication” and “wrongful appropriation” of an alternate author’s “language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions” and passing them off as a person’s original writing are both considered forms of plagiarism. Plagiarism is regarded as a violation of journalistic ethics and intellectual dishonesty. Sanctions like fines, suspension, or even ejection are possible. ‘Extreme plagiarism’ has been detected in academic settings recently. Although plagiarism is not illegal in and of itself, it may violate someone else’s copyright. It is a grave ethical transgression in both academics and business. Although there is some overlap between plagiarism and copyright infringement, the two are not interchangeable, and many forms of plagiarism do not amount to copyright infringement, which is defined by copyright law and subject to judicial decisions. The definition and penalties for plagiarism are set by organizations (such as trade associations, academic institutions, and publishing houses) rather than by legislation.
