Summary/Abstract: Plagiarism is multiform, in that it affects all artistic forms (literature, music, cinema, etc.), as well as the field of academic research; first, we will provide an overview of the extent of the phenomenon under various forms, which will lead us to the effectiveness of the same phenomenon in French universities. Noticing that the Internet significantly contributed to the development of plagiarism practices, we will systematically keep in mind the reasons of plagiarists, whether they are students or professors. Secondly, we will try and bring out the strategies advocated in the fight against plagiarism, strategies which will be presented according to an axis detection/information-prevention/repression of the phenomenon. Throughout our work, we will make a dichotomy between plagiarism, which relates to the notions of morals, ethics, deontology, aesthetics, and counterfeiting, which takes on a juridical dimension.
