The EU's common market is based on four freedoms: free movement of goods, services, labour and capital. We're still lacking the free movement of knowledge.

The next mandate should bring some news on the “Fifth Freedom”.

In this regard, this webinar by Knowledge Rights 21:

A case of a researcher's thesis being plagiarized in a journal article. She needs a good #copyright lawyer. If you wrote it and someone else uses it, it's #plagiarism. You're still the creative author.
IMHO the fact the people who wrote the journal article just copied big chunks of her work show lazy work.
Sounds like the universities and the journal aren't taking this seriously enough.
