Legal Essay On The Interaction Plagiarism & Intellectual Property Law

Plagiarism means copying intellectual work belongs to another and passing off as one’s own that is overlapping with Intellectual Property Law. Hence, many academics think these two terms as synonyms, but this is a false impression, and all instances of plagiarism, such as the use of the idea of another, or self-plagiarism, are not subject to intellectual property law. The present paper tries to investigate the elements and enforcements of its implementation by analytical-descriptive approach and Library- empirical methodology (reviewing Sentences of Disciplinary Disciplinary Board). Finally, it concludes that plagiarism is just part of intellectual property law, but other part of it is subject to an independent system that can lead to administrative penalties.
