Abstract

The purpose of this article was to analyze what is not academic plagiarism by examining objects not protected by copyright: ideas, facts and knowledge of the public domain as exceptions provided for in intellectual property legislation. While it is true that the unlawful appropriation of a work is reprehensible conduct, it is no less true that there are limitations in copyright and therefore there are exceptions that must be considered in the context of academia. In this sense, with support in the doctrine of law and jurisprudence, the cases of licit use of elements for academic work are exposed, such as, the use of ideas, the reference to public facts and in general, the use of knowledge of the public domain. In addition, the requirements of the right of citation are specified, as well as specific cases in which it is not mandatory to quote a particular author. Finally, what is not academic plagiarism is explained and a redefinition of this concept is proposed.

Keywords:
