I think in his position as a tenured professor the worst example of his plagiarism is, what has been published in academic journals. Although I cringe at the thought of giving the Interpreter that level of respect with that statement.Lemmie wrote: ↑Fri May 08, 2020 8:50 pmThe people who own the intellectual property that Peterson posts on his blog would disagree.
As an example, from an earlier post which documented plagiarism of a Sci Am article in a blog entry by Peterson, note that Scientific American considers “posting on a website/blog” to be a category requiring not only payment for use+of copyrighted material, but also a limitation to use on a blog, after payment, of no more than 20%:
Early on in this thread, Kishkumen brought to my attention a case in which a newly inaugurated BYU President plagiarized a speech, and BYU did nothing. This was late 90s, If I recall correctly. In his opinion, if he doesn’t mind me paraphrasing, if no one at BYU objected to that, why would anyone there care if Peterson does it also?Because behavior like has not put in check I wonder about the intellectual integrity of those who are in supervisory positions of the Professor.
I found that to be an utterly disturbing and depressing set of circumstances, and like you, caused me to wonder about “the intellectual integrity” of those in charge. In my opinion;, it is unconscionable. Peterson clearly violates BYU’s honor code, whether it is in a journal, on a blog, or at Deseret News. (This thread documents plagiarized work at all three locations.) It is partly the reason I continue this thread. Someone needs to document the lack of intellectual honesty going on.
