Avoiding Plagiarism
Plagiarism is the "wrongful appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions" and the representation of them as one's own original work.[1][2]
Plagiarism is considered academic dishonesty and a breach of journalistic ethics. It is subject to sanctions such as penalties, suspension, expulsion from school[3] or work[4], substantial fines[5] [6] and even incarceration[7][8]. Recently, cases of "extreme plagiarism" have been identified in academia.[9] The modern concept of plagiarism as immoral and originality as an ideal emerged in Europe in the 18th century, particularly with the Romantic movement.
Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but like counterfeit can be punished in a court[10] [11] for prejudices caused by copyright infringement[12] [13], violation of moral rights[14], or torts. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethicaloffense.[15][16] Plagiarism and copyright infringement overlap to a considerable extent, but they are not equivalent concepts[17], and many types of plagiarism do not constitute copyright infringement, which is defined by copyright law and may be adjudicated by courts.
