THE PROBLEM OF PLAGIARISM IN LEGAL SOLUTIONS IN FRANCE – GENERAL COMMENTS AND REFLECTIONS

Abstract

In French legal science, a scientific discourse has been ongoing for a long time
on the phenomenon of plagiarism, which concerns both pupils, students, and
academic-didactic staff. The phenomenon of plagiarism is a result of the widespread
nature of education at all levels, particularly in higher education. In the article, one can
distinguish two essential parts: the first part presents the conceptual framework, i.e., the
notion of plagiarism and its types, while the second part fundamentally discusses
plagiarism as a violation of personal copyright due to intentional and unintentional
reasons, along with issues of liability.
