This book explores the problem of scientific dishonesty and misconduct - a problem that affects all disciplines, yet whose
extent remains largely unknown and for which established standards for reporting, prevention, and punishment are absent. Presenting
examples of research misconduct, the authors examine the reasons for its occurrence and address the experience of victimization
that is involved, together with the perpetrators' reactions to being accused. With consideration of the role of witnesses
and bystanders, such as book and journal editors and reviewers, students and professional organizations, the book covers the
many forms of academic misconduct, offering a theorization of the phenomenon in criminological terms as a particular form
of crime, before examining the possibilities that exist for the prevention and control of scholarly crime, as well as implications
for further research. An accessible treatment of a problem that remains largely hidden, Scholarly Crimes and Misdemeanors
will appeal to readers across disciplines, and particularly those in the social sciences with interests in academic life,
research ethics and criminology.
