Abstract:: To reduce fleet capacity in European fisheries is an important objective of the European Union’s Common Fisheries Policy. The success of such programmes depends both on the variation and the level of efficiency within the fishing fleets. If vessels with significantly lower efficiency level than average are decommissioned, the actual...

Abstract:: Several factors contribute to the productivity of nations' fisheries: (1) The biophysical conditions that determine the abundance of fish stocks, (2) government regulation of fisheries, and (3) innovation and adoption of (i.e. investments in) new fishing technologies. This paper analyzes the long-run productivity performance of three Nordic countries Iceland, Norway...

Abstract:: The interpretation of the neoclassical model of dynamic labor supply is straight forward. A rational agent exposed to a temporary increase (reduction) in wages will respond by increasing (reducing) working hours. However, empirically such behavior has been hard to confirm. Most income increases are not temporary; hence a substantial income...

Creator:: Eggert, Hakan and Martinsson, Peter
Abstract:: The result of changes in regulation or monitoring and enforcement of commercial fisheries are highly dependent on fishers’ supply response decisions. One central determinant of fishers’ reactions to such changes is their risk preferences. Empirical studies of fishers’ preferences have found that most fishers are risk averse. In this paper,...

Abstract:: Trust is a key aspect in managing fisheries. Individuals with low levels of political trust are more likely to accept illegal behavior. Institutional trust depends on beliefs about institutional behavior and on how competent an institution appears to be. The success of fisheries management depends on how fishermen perceive it....

Abstract:: In this paper we study whether environmental bureaucrats share preferences for environmental policy with the general public. We use the choice experiment method to elicit preferences for improvements in coastal cod abundance along the Swedish West coast. This is done for the general public, Swedish EPA (SEPA) bureaucrats, and for...

Abstract:: Fishing overcapacity has lead to unsustainable harvesting and rent dissipation in global fisheries. Only government intervention of some kind can lead to a reduction in capacity. If efficiency is the primary objective for the regulator, then the least efficient vessels should be decommissioned. Here we analyze the Swedish fishery using...

Abstract:: In this paper we try to assess the welfare implications of the Tanzanian fisheries boom following from the increase in quantities and prices of the Lake Victoria Nile perch export primarily to Europe over the last twenty years. We have a micro level perspective using data from a 1993 World...
