I do not claim entries on this blog as publications of mine
Heh.
I think that’s his way of trying to avoid being held to account for plagiarising others content. However, despite him saying he doesn’t claim his blogs content as a publication of his, that is exactly what it is. Once you post something on your blog, you have “published” it, it’s your publication.
Max Baker-Hytch is alive and well and teaching at Oxford, where he is on the faculty. He’d probably take a dim view to being plagiarised, and of plagiarising in general. This is his University’s policy on the subject…
The University defines plagiarism as follows:
“Presenting work or ideas from another source as your own, with or without consent of the original author, by incorporating it into your work without full acknowledgement. All published and unpublished material, whether in manuscript, printed or electronic form, is covered under this definition, as is the use of material generated wholly or in part through use of artificial intelligence (save when use of A.I. for assessment has received prior authorisation e.g. as a reasonable adjustment for a student’s disability). Plagiarism can also include re-using your own work without citation. Under the regulations for examinations, intentional or reckless plagiarism is a disciplinary offence.”

By presenting Max Baker-Hytch’s ideas as if they were his own, Peterson has met the standard at Oxford for it to be classed as “plagiarism”.
