About the dangers of openness

Dear editors!

Whatever you say, but the presence of spring is felt: the snow was melted, it becomes lighter, slowly the spring exacerbation begins. The people fussed, ran up. The new scientific fund announced the first contests - and the people immediately rushed to write applications. Just like small children: 700 grants for the whole country and for all science, and we have, how many groups we have. Percent for 90 writers, this work is a clear Martyshkin labor: no one will give them anything, but all the same, they are torn anyway. Spring, in general, has no other reasonable explanations.

However, our people always love money, so this whim is partly excusable. More distinctly spring exacerbation is manifested in the life of the public. It seemed not so for a long time for a long time autumn rallies of protest, statements and articles in the press, and now it begins again. In March, the next meeting of the conference of researchers is planned, there are statements about plagiators.

Moreover, all kinds of public activists would have been engaged in this, no, high -ranking officials also entered into a discussion, which is no longer suitable for anywhere. A person is responsible, in a public office, for ordinary people a leader, inaccessible by a large figure, ascending his head above the Lavra bell tower, where ordinary people look like mice. And their thoughts should not arise that such a value will respond to their screams and statements. Dogs bark, and the state caravan is coming - this is the only true line. Otherwise, you can go very far.

But about everything in order. It began with appeals to the authorities about the need to eliminate the statute of limitations for various kinds of whole dissertations, scientists began to sign them, exclaiming that the crooks have benefited from their crusts, confirming their linden qualifications, and there can be no statute of limitations. Then the campaign began against the famous defender of the rights of children, Comrade Astakhov.

And this, I will tell you, uniform disgrace. After all, Pavel Alekseevich is a creative, talented and multifaceted person. He is a lawyer, and a TV presenter, a writer, and a statesman. Finally, he is a verified, our comrade. Taking a difficult and noblest business of the protection of our children and orphans. Moreover, it was brightly, with the soul, which was noted in the fight against foreign adoptive parents-sads and the danger of adoption in countries allowing gay brothers.

Here, a notorious dissertation ran into such and such a person: his doctoral dissertation, they say, with incorrect borrowings. And then screams rose: a person who rudely trampling ethical burrows cannot be a defender of children and occupy a major state post. Well, for stupid things! Of course, maybe not only can, but also occupies, as we see! This is what I say indignantly.

Moreover, this is obvious to responsible people who occupy ministerial posts. Apparently, therefore, Dmitry Viktorovich Livanov could not restrain himself, speaking in an interview in the way that those officials and businessmen who bought their dissertations, in fact, did no violations of scientific ethics, because they were not scientists. Golden words! I myself not only spoke repeatedly, but wrote to my favorite newspaper that it was not worth it to be excited about this about this, because for the dissertations of officials and businessmen, these dissertations are nothing more than another turred, an estate on the azure shore or a mistress.

Another thing is that it was not worth the minister to enter the discussion, as I said above, it was not worth it. He, as a state man, needs to be angry in the root. Of course, you can’t fix especially active figures, they should deal with specialized specialists with medical degrees. And the Ministry of Education and Science is time to put things in order in the dissertation. After all, the root is the troubles in what? In openness. Authorities - on the Internet, dissertations - on the Internet! So they jumped. All this openness must be covered immediately. There are dissertation tips, opponents, Higher Attestation Commission, Mon - more than enough instances. There is nothing so -called progressive public to poke its digging into a feces. This is the only way to stop the malicious speculations that undermine the prestige of power.
