Recommendations; INDEXThis book offers a long overdue account of the wide range of corruption and cheating practices in Russian higher education, including bribery, financial fraud, clientelism, plagiarism, exam cheating, and much more. Serghei Golunov ruthlessly uncovers the recent social trends that have created a favourable ground for such malpractices and evaluates the efficiency of measures taken against corruption and fraud by various actors. Although corruption and cheating are so wide-spread in most Russian universities that the real value of their diplomas is very questionable, these problems are prioritizSoviet and post-Soviet politics and society.Cheating (Education)Education, HigherRussia (Federation)Cheating (Education)Russia (Federation)Cheating (Education)Education, HigherCheating (Education)378.1958Golunov Serghei1166268MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824527903321The elephant in the room4075574UNINA01858nam 22004933 450 991015769140332120250207185113.097899724531829972453189(CKB)3710000000679769(MiAaPQ)EBC4527708(MiAaPQ)EBC31883346(Au-PeEL)EBL31883346(OCoLC)1490380919(BIP)119927096(EXLCZ)99371000000067976920250207d2016 uy 0spaurcnu||||||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierVigencia de la semiotica y otros ensayos /Desiderio BlancoPrimera edición digital.Lima, Peru :Universidad de Lima, Fondo Editorial,2016.©[2016]1 online resource (240 pages)Colección Biblioteca Universidad de LimaIncludes bibliographical references.'Sentido' y 'significación' son los hilos conductores de los textos reunidos por su autor en este libro, tras casi cuarenta años dedicados al estudio de la semiótica.
