Guttenberg plagiarism affair

Rudolf Streinz was the second reviewer in the doctoral process of the CSU politician Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg at the University of Bayreuth . Doctoral supervisor was Peter Häberle , who supervised Guttenberg's doctoral thesis from around 2000 to 2007. The dissertation entitled Constitution and Constitutional Treaty. Constitutional stages of development in the USA and the EU were accepted by the law and economics faculty of the university in 2006 and awarded the top grade “ summa cum laude ” in early 2007 . In February 2011 Guttenberg's dissertation came under public criticism , triggered by allegations of plagiarism by the Bremen constitutional law professor Andreas Fischer-Lescano .

Streinz, who had been informed by Fischer-Lescano about the plagiarism allegations before the first publication, stated that Guttenberg's work was "very convincing" and that, as an expert, he had no doubts about a positive judgment. In connection with a high level of media attention, further allegations arose and the "Guttenberg plagiarism affair" triggered a political affair in Germany, which the German Bundestag dealt with on February 23, 2011. After the University of Bayreuth had found significant violations of the scientific obligations to identify sources and citations , Guttenberg's doctorate was revoked on February 23, 2011.

Streinz stated in an interview in March 2011 that he had “relied too much on the fact that work would be done correctly”. Streinz dismissed allegations that he favored a fellow party member as "absurd and more than disreputable".

Other engagement

Since 2007 he has been an honorary member of the Catholic student association KDStV Aenania Munich in the CV .
