Beschreibung
The book brings together diverse views from around the world and provides a comprehensive overview of academic integrity and how to create the ethical academy. At the same time, the Handbook does not shy away from some of the vigorous debates in the field such as the causes of academic integrity breaches. There has been an explosion of interest in academic integrity in the last 20-30 years. New technologies that have made it easier than ever for students to ‘cut and paste’, coupled with global media scandals of high profile researchers behaving badly, have resulted in the perception that plagiarism is ‘on the rise’. This, in combination with the massification and commercialisation of higher education, has resulted in a burgeoning interest in the importance of academic integrity, how to safeguard it and how to address breaches appropriately. What may have seemed like a relatively easy topic to address – students copying sources without attribution – has in fact, turned out tobe a complex, interdisciplinary field of research requiring contributions from linguists, psychologists, social scientists, anthropologists, teaching and learning specialists, mathematicians, accountants, medical doctors, lawyers and philosophers, to name just a few.
Because of this broad interest and input, this handbook serves as the single authoritative reference work which brings together the vast, growing, interdisciplinary and at times contradictory body of literature. For both established researchers/practitioners and those new to the field, this Handbook provides a one-stop-shop as well as a launching pad for new explorations and discussions.
Goes beyond student plagiarism to provide a broad and detailed, comprehensive reference work Demonstrates commonalities and differences between regions and approaches, on an international scale Engages with controversial debates such as the use of surveillance technologies to address academic misconduct

“Methodologically, the volume functions as a curated anthology rather than a systematic synthesis. … the handbook effectively updates the field by addressing emerging issues such as AI, decolonisation, and equity. Its primary audience comprises scholars, institutional leaders, and educators seeking a comprehensive view of integrity as a moral and systemic project. Its main contribution lies in advancing a global paradigm that integrates ethics, inclusion, and accountability, positioning it as a significant reference for future research, pedagogy, and policy.” (Hardiyanti Pratiwi, Journal of Academic Ethics, Vol. 24 (1), 2026)
