Scientific journalist Alexei Ognev visited the presentation of the Dissernet project, held on November 7, 2013 as part of the discussion club of the design laboratory of the Higher Superior Anti-Corruption Policy under the leadership of Elena Panfilova. He wrote about the most interesting moments of this meeting in his report for the TRV-NAUKA, and Ignat Solovey kindly presented several photographs. See his full photo report in Facebook [1].
A session of exposure of black magic, sewn with white threads, occurred in the Higher School of Economics on a red day of the calendar. Journalist Sergei Parkhomenko acted as the exposure, Professor Andrei Rostovtsev helped him, and the physics of elementary particles of the ITEF. The people did not fall with a rampart, but a man came; There were not enough places for everyone, some people perched on the windowsill.
Before the eyes of the amazed audience, a string of governors, mayors, deputies, judges and rectors, whose dissertation costumes, seemed to be sewn by all fashion laws, disappeared before our eyes. Tall persons were truly exposed.
Once the retinue of Woland turned the labels from champagne into Chervonets, the current magicians also hold the bar. Let's say a State Duma deputy named Igor Igoshin managed to turn white chocolate into a domestic beef, and black chocolate into beef on the bones [2]. And the prosecutor named Kerim Safaraliev is concerned about damage to prison property (apparently washbasins?) When washing money by prisoners [3].
However, there is no reason to list all the revelations. You can easily find them on the website of Dissernet. Moreover, two or three full-fledged examinations are now passing a day, and the next sensations can surfacing even between the spelling and publication of this note. Therefore, we will dwell on common things.
- Dissernet is a community, not a hierarchical structure, not a Leninist type party, we have no Politburo and no governing bodies. There is a real flat network, ”Parkhomenko emphasized.

Many came into this network. Among others, the Governor of the Tula region, whose family income in the year before last beat all records among Russian officials. According to Parkhomenko, the analysis of the bureaucratic dissertation allows us to judge its administrative abilities:
-Someone in a row of 168 pages of stolen text in a row with one chopped piece in a row. What can be said about Gruzdev? Firstly, he is a terrible jerk, because he went to the cheapest office and clearly decided to save money with all his stores “Seventh Continent”. I think that it would be important for voters of Governor Gruzdev to know: they are dealing with a person who will be successful for a penny or do not understand anything in people at all in his own staff. After all, someone pouted him! Probably, they took a completely different amount from him, and then went to the cheapest office and left the difference for themselves. So everything happens in his Tula region! We or Navalny, in order to seriously study this entire area, it would be necessary to smear seven iron breads. And here everything can be seen by one piece of paper, we just look and see: Gruzdev cannot be dealt with, because he cannot control his own secretary, which he takes off the loot from under his nose and puts it in such a hellish light.
After all the revelations, the discussion was opened by the politician Ilya Yashin:
- You have listed many deputies, officials, rector. But you did not nam the two surnames who are in the air. Putin we have a candidate of economic sciences, Medvedev - legal ...
- Of course. We did not pass by this, ”Parkhomenko picked up. - Let's start with Medvedev, because his dissertation is completely benign. We did not find what to complain about. And there is a strong impression that no one wrote it to order. It’s just that he was really a modest teacher at that time.
- Theoretically, can he steal the text now? - Yashin said.
- Easily. Easy to. As for Putin - here I will send you to the classical article by Konstantin Sonin “Dare out from the dissertation of Putin,” which I have quit two hundred times [4].
Sonin himself was present at the meeting and also asked a tricky question:
“Would you make a deal with the devil?” If any conditional governor with a fake dissertation refused a degree, would you remove information about him from the disserternet?
- That would be a goal! - exclaimed Professor Rostovtsev.
“It seems to me that a certain“ zero option ”is good for the scientific community: conditional ministers refuse a degree, but they are not punished,” Sonin fantasized.
- We can praise, if necessary! Although the praise will turn out to be poisoned. But if a person himself says: “I repent, I changed my mind,” - this is completely enough for us! - assured Parkhomenko.

- There are people who have nothing but this fake dissertation (and the rest of the fake). It is clear that they will never give up. But the same Gruzdev has money earned on another. I am sure that the dissertation in life did not help him. He is a solid young man! - continued Sonin.
- What arguments do not go and not to hand over? - Professor Rostovtsev sighed.
“No, I, as a former publisher of detective novels, can imagine the situation for myself: he killed the person who puffed him, and the dissertation is indirect evidence,” Parkhomenko suggested.
Jurisdriver named Denis longed for the judicial reprisal:
- From a legal point of view, all this is drawn to fraud. Have you turned somewhere?
“Informally, we discussed the issue with different prosecutors through our friends, large legal bonz,” said Parkhomenko. - Prosecutors say: “And what are I? I am nothing! Please! Only you cancel the diploma! A person has a diploma in his hands, he is genuine, not drawn on his knee, with a seal and a date. What can I do? " First, the disable, the Higher Attestation Commission or the Ministry of Education and Science should annulate the false degree. And there will come up with fraud, illegal entrepreneurship, and forgery - many wonderful things. But we are not able to break the Higher Attestation Commission. Most often there is a three -year term, and when there is no three -year period, there is just a grave silence. With dissection offices, history is also hopeless. They are all on the surface, but they are not afraid of anything. Lawyers tell us: "We do not know how to cling." Formally, these offices carry out consulting services. If the displeased appears and says: "They wrote me a dissertation poorly!" - Then you can prank them.
But there are no dissatisfied yet, so the struggle with the falsehood resembles a fight with the Lernier Hydra: you will cut off one head - it will grow three more. However, the exposures continue to chop. Athena to help!
