| Summary: | This article diagnoses the problem of plagiarism in academic books and articles in the disciplines of philosophy and theology. It identifies three impediments to institutional reform. They are: (1) a misplaced desire to preserve personal and institutional reputations; (2) a failure to recognize that attribution in academic writing admits of degrees; and (3) a disproportionate emphasis on the so-called "intention to plagiarize." A detailed case study provides an illustration of the need for institutional reform in the post-publication processes in the disciplines of philosophy and theology. |
