Felix Perrefort wrote that plagiarism problems among politicians arise because they write dissertations mainly to enhance their resumes and often lack a serious research interest. Such works are often difficult to read and are rarely read outside of assessments; instead of demonstrating their own intellectual achievements, they convey an appearance of scholarly merit. According to Perrefort, only those who truly want to discover something new should write a dissertation. Only people who want to fully dedicate themselves to science should strive for a doctorate. He described it as indecent to present others with 200 to 400-page texts that are merely obligatory exercises and therefore insignificant. Perrefort questioned which politicians felt the need to profile themselves with a doctoral thesis. He described them as career politicians without a "solid foundation of an acquired profession" and wrote that they neither mastered politics nor science. Mario Voigt embodies this problem particularly strongly, Perrefort claimed, accusing him of being unable to say anything about Auschwitz without AI and of lacking independent thoughts. #Plagiat #Doktortitel #Wissenschaft (translated)
