Legal analysis
Thesis ghostwriting undermines the degree-granting system. But this is still a rule, which has not yet risen to the legal level, so criminal trials cannot be conducted on this basis. Whether there are legal norms in this field is still controversial. As far as the present situation is concerned, it is not illegal to write papers on behalf of others. The paper written on behalf of the author belongs to commissioned works, and the copyright law stipulates the copyright ownership of commissioned works from the perspective of protecting the author's rights. In the absence of special agreement between the parties, the law stipulates that copyright belongs to the trustee. Because the trustee was entrusted to create the finished work, he was the author of commissioned works. Based on the legislative purpose of protecting authors and encouraging creation, copyright should be given to trustees without agreement. Of course, while the trustee enjoys the copyright, it is also subject to certain restrictions. For example, the trustee shall provide the commissioned works to the client as agreed, and the client has the right to use it within the agreed scope. If there is no agreed scope of use, the client may use it free of charge within the specific purpose of the commissioned creation. In addition, the trustee should also follow the principle of good faith, and his rights should not be abused or hinder the proper use of the client. Therefore, writing papers on behalf of others does not violate the provisions of the copyright law, but at the level of academic papers, it should violate the relevant management system. This is neither illegal nor illegal. Can only say that it violates the meaning of moral mountain. Because it is immoral to help students be lazy, you can only criticize them from the moral level. Plagiarism, plagiarism and misappropriation of other people's academic achievements; Tampering with other people's research results; Forging scientific research data, materials, documents and notes, or fabricating facts or misrepresenting research results; Without participating in the research or creation, signing the research results and academic papers, improperly using others' signatures without others' permission, fictional collaborators' signatures, or many people * * * completed the research without indicating others' work and contributions in the results; Providing false academic information in the process of reporting topics, achievements, awards and job evaluation, and applying for a degree; Buying and selling papers, writing for others or writing for others; Other rules formulated by institutions of higher learning or relevant academic organizations and relevant scientific research management institutions are academic misconduct.
