Plagiarism

In September 2018, Tetiana Riazantseva accused Dmytro Drozdovskyi of plagiarism in his book 'Multiplicity of Reality in the English Postmodernist Novel,' intended for defense as a doctoral dissertation at the Institute of Literature, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. A group of literary scholars, including Riazantseva, Pavlo Mykhed, Oles Fedoruk, Mykhailo Nazarenko and Dmytro Yesypenko published their findings on September 26, revealing extensive plagiarism in ten sections of Drozdovskyi's thesis and partial plagiarism in four more, along with the introduction and conclusions. Drozdovskyi have translated and copied fragments of scholarly papers from Russian, English, and Spanish languages by various authors without proper attribution.

Following these allegations, Institute of Literature Commission was established on October 9, concluding on November 13 that Drozdovsky's monograph contained 64% plagiarism. Consequently, on November 15, the Academic Council of the Institute revoked the recommendation for the monograph's publication.

Scholars from the anti-plagiarism initiative 'Dysergate' supported the commission's findings and cautioned against relying solely on computer programs for detecting plagiarism. Drozdovskyi received 'Plagiarist of the Year' anti-award in 2018 and faced public scrutiny and criticism.

Svitlana Blahodietelieva-Vovk, a coordinator of the 'Dysergate' initiative, characterized Drozdovsky's claims as manipulative attacks. Serhiy Trymbach, a film critic and member of the Committee for the National Taras Shevchenko Award, praised those fighting plagiarism and criticized Drozdovsky's audacious behavior.

Subsequent revelations brought to light further unethical actions by Drozdovskyi, including non-cited borrowings in his book 'Code of the Future' (2006), plagiarized articles in academic journals, and allegations of deceit from illustrator Khrystyna Lukashchuk.

The controversy persisted with director Bohdan Tykholoz's claim in February 2022, asserting that 53% of Drozdovsky's article consisted of borrowed text from his work on Ukrainian writers of the 1960s. Tykholoz called for public condemnation, exclusion from academic committees, and scrutiny of Drozdovsky's other works' authenticity, intending to pursue legal action for copyright protection.

As of January 2024, the latest controversy involving Drozdovsky was the news of him and Andrew Sheppard being awarded the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine Maxym Rylskyi Prize. One of the committee members Maxym Strikha protested by resigning and highlighting the award's questionable basis. The controversy prompted concerns about the award's credibility and the potential use of machine translation or AI for the awarded translation. Poet and curator Bohdan-Oleh Horobchuk covered the scandal in detail, criticizing top officials and advocating for reevaluation of the committee's composition and award decisions.
