Academic research
Week 1:
Lecture 1 - Intro + Library Workshop
The Authorship Paradox
Plagiarism became a problem in 18th century romanticism
medieval time → originality as something bad
cross cultural perspective
→ imitating masters is mastery itself (china)
direct quotations with attribution
→ when does heavy quotation became lack of original analysis?
→ he whats it to be your words, so as less quotes as possible
paraphrase
→ the thesaurus syndrome: surface level word substitution
the economy grew → the fiscal situation grew
This is plagiarism! nothing is added, you’re
conceptual genealogy
self-plagiarism: copying your own earlier submitted work
scientific data trough library catalogues and databases
Review article: Overview of current state of research in a particular field

Contract cheating
GenAI
the commodification of academic labour
different from historical patron-stribe relations
OR = synonyms (broaden) → results that contain one of the terms
AND = different concepts (narrow) → results that contain both
Lecture 2 - Research Questions and Hypothese
The epistemic argument:
there must be accountability → in order to be held accountable we need to
know who said what
knowledge builds cumulatively → attribution is the infrastructure → taking
ideas and start to challenge, refute and adres them
it’s a intellectual cartography → it’s how it works
uncited sources make arguments impossible to verify, extend or refute
The ethical argument
not so much about stealing ones ideas → who ones knowledge?
it is about recognizing other people
early career scholars depend on citations → if a lot of people cite it it starts
to become a important paper → gives you credit that you wrote this
important paper
Marginalized scholars (not the same academic privileges) already face
citation erasure → so not giving them credit compounds injustice
