Определение pseudo-scholarship в Английский Язык Английский Язык словарь

An arrangement that in effect grants a scholarship to a student, without being considered on a par with a real or standard scholarship

These jobs, which require students to prove financial need, serve as pseudo-scholarships, enabling some students to afford college. (Greg Gottesman, Daniel Baer, College Survival 7th Ed., Peterson's (2004), p. 212.).

Any body of publications purported to be scholarly or supported by critical scholarship but which fails to comply with scholarly standards

But once we are willing to allow one kind of pseudo-scholarship a foothold, the main rationale for closing the gates to others must logically come from judging the motivation behind them (Scott McConnell, 'When Pretension Reigns Supreme', New York Post, 22 May 1996, reprinted in Alan D. Sokal (ed.), The Sokal hoax: the sham that shook the academy, University of Nebraska Press, 2000, p. 87).
