Comments on Richard H. Thaler, From Homo Economicus to Homo Sapiens, Journal of Economic Perspectives 14-1, Winter 2000, 133-14

Creator:: Neher, Philip A.
Abstract:: Thaler’s short paper is written to forecast the future of economics. The author states at the top that he will be subject to certain biases and also suggests good reasons why he will be subject to them. But, it turns out that the forecasts themselves are not supported by objective...

Fish to Plate: "The Lean Route"

Creator:: Blythe, Richard
Abstract:: The economic viability of the fishery will be dependant on the ability of the processors to deliver desired products to their customers, when required. The ultimate goal must therefore be to identify what the customers want and then to optimise the process that delivers the final product. Catching fish is...

The Effect of Quota Trading Limitation in A Fishery Managed Through Individual Transferable Quotas

Creator:: Hamon, Katell G., Frusher, Stewart D., Little, L. Richard, and Thébaud, Olivier
Abstract:: Individual transferable quotas (ITQs) have been used in several countries worldwide to regulate access to marine fisheries. While ITQs can improve the economic efficiency of fisheries, in practice they are not a panacea and distribution and equity issues have been raised in many cases. To overcome those issues, ITQ systems...

Viability of Transboundary Fisheries and International Quota Sharing

Creator:: Curtin, Richard and Martinet, Vincent
Abstract:: This paper examines the viability of the management of a transboundary resource, the Bay of Biscay anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus L.). A deterministic model is used to simulate the anchovy dynamics, with the fish stock consisting of two age groups, “young" and “old", while recruitment follows a Beverton Holt pattern. Two...

Resource management and trade policies: a two-country general equilibrium model of trade in renewable natural resource

Creator:: Emami, Ali and Johnston, Richard S.
Abstract:: Most trade literature is concerned with gains from free trade under the assumption that traded goods are produced under complete property rights. Seldom have researchers examined the consequences of free trade in the presence of incomplete property rights over renewable natural resources. In this paper, we explore these consequences. In...

The Survival of Cultures: Preemptive Compensation, Natural Resources and Poverty

Creator:: Emami, Ali and Johnston, Richard S.
Abstract:: In developed – and some less-developed – societies, managing an “open access,” renewable natural resource sector generally involves taxes, quotas, or other government or community restrictions. But some cultures, especially in their early years, have taken a different approach, one that involves transfer of part of the output of the...

Assessing the Contributions Derived from Capture Fisheries from a Wellbeing Perspective: Methodological and Policy Implications

Creator:: Arthur, Robert, Friend, Richard, and Béné, Christophe
Abstract:: Capture fisheries can potentially provide a wide range of social benefits, many of which make important contributions to local livelihoods and national economies. However, in practice, and in many representations of fisheries, the starting point for assessment is the biological, fish, element of the system and its production potential. The benefits...

Coping With an Increasing Import Base: A Case Study of the Southeast U.S. Shrimp Processing Industry

Creator:: Keithly, Walter, Diop, Hamady, and Kazmierczak, Richard F.
Abstract:: It is well known that world production of shrimp, particularly farm-raised product, has increased significantly since the early-to-mid 1980's and that much of the product is directed to the U.S. market. Less well known is the fact that the product composition of the U.S. imported product (e.g., headless shell-on, peeled)...

Location Choice Behavior Modeling of Shrimp Fishermen in the Gulf of Mexico

Creator:: Ran, Tao, Keithly, Walter R., and Kazmierczak, Richard F.
Abstract:: The shrimp fishery accounts for more than one-half of the total revenues generated by commercial fishing activities in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. Due to its historical open access nature the harvesting sector has historically been overcapitalized (from an economic perspective) resulting in a suboptimal generation of rents. Various management...

The Economics of Conservation Targeting Strategies

Creator:: Wu, JunJie, Adams, Richard M., and Boggess, William G.
Abstract:: In recent years, payments to purchase resources or easements or to change landowner behavior have become a major vehicle for resource conservation and environmental protection. These funds use various strategies to target resources for conservation, the choice of which may lead to striking differences in economic and environmental performance. In...

Spatial Analysis Within an Economic Framework for the U.S. Gulf of Mexico Grouper Fishery

Creator:: Diop, Hamady, Keithly, Walter R., and Kazmierczak, Richard F.
Abstract:: Theory suggests that fishing effort would be allocated among various fishing grounds such that profit levels would be equal. Homogeneity among fishers as well as perfect information is assumed and profits are opportunistically increased by changing fishing locations. These assumptions have been shown empirically ins some single fisheries where fishers...

An Empirical Analysis of New Zealand's ITQ Markets

Creator:: Newell, Richard G., Sanchirico, James N., and Kerr, Suzi
Abstract:: Fisheries worldwide continue to suffer from the negative consequences of open access. In 1986, New Zealand responded by establishing an individual transferable quota (ITQ) system that by 1998 included 33 species and more than 150 markets for fishing quotas. We assess these markets in terms of trends in market activity,...

Abstract:: In response to growing concerns about illness and deaths associated with Vibrio Vulnificus, California initiated a program in March 1991 that required anyone selling oysters to notify potential consumers that the “consumption of raw oysters can cause serious illness and death among people with liver disease, chronic illness, or weakened...

An Empirical Analysis of Portfolio Management as a Tool for Implementing Ecosystem-Based Fishery Management

Abstract:: Many experts have argued that the traditional management of commercial fish stocks as single-species is short-sighted, wasteful, and ineffective. Ecosystem-based fisheries management (EBFM) now is being promoted as a potential solution to the problem. While much attention has been directed recently at the potential benefits of implementing EBFM for commercial...

Is “Waste Not Want Not” an Adequate Ethic for By-catch?: Five Biblical Ethical Models for Addressing Incidental Fisheries Catch and Ecosystem Disturbance

Creator:: Bratton, Susan Power
Abstract:: The “Protestant ethic” with its emphasis on hard work, efficiency, and frugality has influenced the values of North American fishing communities. Many commercial fishers concur with its principle of “waste not, want not,” and believe that discarding marketable fish is wrong. In industrialized fisheries, this ethic by itself is inadequate,...

Optimal Harvesting Time in Fish Farming with Heterogenous Population

Abstract:: The optimal harvesting time in a fish farm is analyzed in the paper. Fish population is assumed to be heterogeneous with respect to weight, so a distributed parameter dynamic model is considered. Theoretical and numerical results are obtained and compared with the ones concerning homogeneous fish cultures only. The results...
