Recently, a few of scientific journals raise serious questions about scientific ethics and moral judgment of some of the Iranian government's senior executives in their papers. Plagiarism, under any circumstances is not justified, and we do not intend to justify it in this note. However, we find it useful in understanding why otherwise respected, responsible individuals may engage in plagiarism by terse review of the history Iranian academia.
最近，有几家科学期刊对一些伊朗政府高级官员在其论文中的科学道德和道德判断提出了严重质疑。在任何情况下，抄袭都是不可原谅的，我们也无意在这篇文章中为抄袭行为辩护。然而，通过简要回顾伊朗学术界的历史，我们发现这对于理解为什么一些原本受人尊敬、有责任感的人会抄袭是很有帮助的。
