<p>Academic integrity is key to the reputation of higher education&nbsp;institutions. Plagiarism, the most frequently occurring form of academic&nbsp;misconduct, poses a significant threat to the maintenance of academic&nbsp;integrity globally, but it has received very little attention in the research&nbsp;literature of the Caribbean. This volume aims to lift the blanket of silence&nbsp;that surrounds plagiarism in the region by examining students' perception&nbsp;of plagiarism, as well as its prevalence in society generally, and at both&nbsp;</p><p>the secondary and tertiary levels. It also examines accreditation agencies'&nbsp;treatment of academic integrity in their policies. This work is valuable to&nbsp;higher education administrators, faculty and students. It provides the&nbsp;first in-depth examination of plagiarism regionally, and includes relevant&nbsp;information and strategies aimed at helping the region to transition from&nbsp;the current punitive approach to plagiarism management to a culture&nbsp;of academic integrity.</p>
