RT Book T1 The corruption of theological institutions by plagiarism in dissertations T2 Studies in research integrity A1 Schachenmayr, Alkuin Volker 1969- LA English PP Leiden Boston PB Brill YR 2023 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/1832135578 AB "Getting a doctorate in Europe is supremely attractive for young Catholic priests from developing countries. They attain prestige, career advancement, and - in many cases - the opportunity to move permanently from impoverished countries to some of the world's wealthiest. But do they submit rigorous, original doctoral research in keeping with universal academic standards? This study examines theological dissertations by international students accepted by major Austrian universities and shows that academic incompetence, plagiarism, and negligent supervision are seriously damaging theological institutions - in Europe and abroad. By looking the other way, advisors and administrators do their students and the church a disservice"-- NO Includes bibliographical references and index CN BX910.A9 SN 9789004529052 K1 Catholic Church : Clergy : Education : Austria K1 Catholic Church : Africa : Clergy K1 Theology : Study and teaching : Austria K1 Theology : Study and teaching : Catholic Church K1 Dissertations, Academic : Austria K1 Plagiarism : Austria
