  • The Crucial Role of Small-scale Fisheries in Conservation

    Creator:
    Charles, Anthony
    Abstract:
    Small-scale fisheries are no exceptions to the requirements of staying within the biological bounds of sustainability, by purposively limiting fish harvests, and of maintaining productivity of oceans and freshwater systems, by protecting ecosystem health and habitat quality. However, while these fisheries, like all others, have the potential to pose conservation...

  • Small-Scale Fisheries and Global Subsidy Reform

    Creator:
    Charles, Anthony
    Abstract:
    Subsidies are most often discussed within global fora (such as the World Trade Organiza­tion) in terms of concerns over trade distortions, if some countries gain an unfair advantage, through their subsidies, over unsubsidized industry elsewhere. In fisheries, this concern is matched by an en­vironmental argument – that fish stock depletion...
