Time: January 19, 2008 Author: Zheng Minghuai (Department of social science of Guangxi University of Technology) source: Academic Criticism

Nanjing University of Finances and Economics law school associate professor Liu Zheng in the "Yang Yusheng to Chinese academic criticism to where? -- Shen Muzhu, Zhang Zhongchun "plagiarism" irrefutable "made Yang Yusheng (hereinafter referred to as the" Liu Wen 1 ") after the announcement, then went on to write" please speak with the facts -- on Yang Yusheng called the "Professor of Nanjing University of Finances and Economics law school and associate professor of" defamation criticism "(hereinafter referred to as the" Liu Wen 2 ") article however, the authors also replaced by Liu Zheng, the Liao Jun administration two teachers. But with the "Liu Wen 1", and not be in a calm mood to counter criticism, but with a strong emotional color, for some issues are not rationally and objectively refuted.

Liable to lay oneself open to suspicion, should be self avoiding suspicion, "is an associate professor of international law, and discipline secretary, law subjects according to the court documents for fund account management and expense reimbursement, check; another is the graduate secretary, payment and reimbursement for hospital, school and administrative funds income fund." From the two teacher identity, there should be a personal relationship better and Shen Muzhu Dean, otherwise it will not let you do science, Graduate Secretary secretary. Two teachers to lead the reputation, in order to the reputation of the school, Toshio, mood can understand, courage, but is not. On the face of it, this is speak boldly in defense of justice, justice, but in reality is confuse right and wrong, let a person feel a fawn on, curry favour with suspicion, this phenomenon in the academic circles also worthy of attention.

Such a thing, if it is two teachers volunteered said better, if it is Shen Muzhu Dean couple secretly manipulating, remote command word, that's too bad.

Part of South Property Law School professor and associate professor in the school of Nanjing University of Finances and Economics and Nanjing University of Finances and Economics law "open letter" -- to principal Xu Congcai pointed out: "Zhang Zhongchun though not law school teachers in the series, but in fact is the highest leadership hundred-percent law school, not only directly inserting technique college affairs". "Professor Shen Muzhu couples to build internal relationship between the personal directly into law school." "Public power Shen Muzhu Dean couple use their master at the school, and the name of a personal dispute sound." "Liu Wen 2" and not on the open letter to the content of these one one retort, what libel? This is a fact, or slander?

Points out that the open letter: "because of the husband and wife to, public resources they use the master, use for public relations, in order to get the school funds, research projects, published papers, and then get a high reward from law school." So, does this Is it right? Really?

"Liu Wen 2" lists many school regulations, such as the South Property Law No. [2003]20, "Interim Measures" on the supplement and adjustment of some journals award, "for the implementation of the teaching and scientific research work conference in 2003 the school spirit, to meet the needs of the law school create key disciplines, by reference to other school school practice, according to the hospital, hospital party government meeting decided to supplement periodical award, adjust the teacher scientific research workload requirements and increase the intensity of incentives." South Property Law No. [2006]6, "about strengthening the construction of teaching courseware and promote the teaching reform of the decision", "to implement the school" eleven five "planning on strengthening professional construction and promote the teaching reform, to ensure the realization of legal professional brand, social work specialty construction goal, discussion and revision by the Committee, all the staff meeting to solicit opinions, party government meeting decided, in the" eleven five "period, increase efforts to encourage teachers to write the publication of teaching materials, multimedia courseware, network course, published paper." With these regulations to refute some of the problems mentioned in an open letter, it is weak and feeble, at least not much persuasion.

There are several key problems:

First, there is no use of public resources to run task, to run the project? Public resource packed some academic journal editor or editor has no use college? Such a thing, say to yourself, but also can be said to be in order to college, that is in order to college, but ultimately the benefits are often Dean couple, can say, no selfishness? Can be completely denied the use of public resources, seek personal gain?

Secondly, Professor Shen Muzhu couples have to take those who repeat the published papers to won Academy Award? According to the school regulations, published papers get due reward, as unalterable principles, no ground for blame. But if it is repeated publication, it will be another matter, such behavior should firmly oppose.

As for the financial problems of law school internal how, it is the school discipline inspection departments, outsiders without any reason to interfere, but makes comments on the relationship between reward duplication and repetition of published papers obtained, it does not belong to the normal academic criticism category?
