In considering fisheries regulation in the next decade, I make a concluding point that may become a major theme. This is that individual permanent catch quotas of a regulator-determined TAC are only a stage in the development of management from licensing to private rights (Scott 1989). The condition of open...
Les changements intervenus dans le secteur des pêches au cours des deux dernières décennies rendent nécessaires une réévaluation de la validité des approches conventionnelles du développement et de l'aménagement des pêches. En effet, de nombreux projets de développement continuent à insister sur l'utilisation de bateaux et d'engins de pêche améliorés,...
In 1976 global exports for fish and fisheries products was approximately $8 billion. In 2000,
global exports exceeded $55 billion. The period between 1985 and 1995 witnessed the tripling
of global fisheries exports. This represents more than half of total value of global fisheries
production. Developing countries began to increase...
In British Columbia “co-management agreements” are improving the sustainable management of many commercial fisheries. While some fisheries have fairly extensive co-management agreements which outline cost recovery, joint and separate roles and responsibilities for enforcement, science, and management, most do not. There are a number of important factors which have limited...
The Australian coral reef fin-fish fishery (CRFFF) on the Great Barrier Reef has been managed under ITQs since 2004. A large number of different reef species (>155) are covered by the management plan, but the primary species in terms of value and volume landed are coral trout and red throat...
Community fishery rights are use rights (the right to take part in fishing) and/or management rights (the right to be involved in managing the fishery) implemented at a local, community level. While by no means a new invention, community rights are receiving renewed attention as a mechanism to improve the...
Marine ecosystems are generally more extensive and complex than terrestrial ecosystems. Our understanding of the ecological relationships and biological processes within marine ecosystems is rudimentary but improving. In addition, our appreciation of the range of goods and services available from the marine environment and demand for competing economic uses of...
The Icelandic ITQ system has been under development since the early 1980s. Rights were initially grandfathered. Rights have been priced and traded and put up as collateral against loans. Quota values have thus affected the balance sheet of Icelandic fishing firms in a fundamental way. The aim of this paper...

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...
It is generally recognised that market-based instruments have a strong role to play in improving the efficiency of fisheries management. This belief was strongly reinforced at the 2002 IIFET Conference, where the use of ITQ systems was extensively discussed. While ITQ systems are commonly referred to as “rights-based management” (RBM),...
The article discusses the issue and complexities that arise when two sectors, fisheries and marine tourism, grown and imply for an institution governing coral reef ecosystem either government based or community based. Even though, a community-based management system is commonly recognized as a better way in governing the resources, the...
Main objective of this paper is to investigate current issues of the development of Culture-Based Fisheries (CBF) within the existing legal frame work. The experiences of CBF activities from 2003-2004 in five administrative districts in Sri Lanka have identified two main issues for the development of culture- based fisheries such...
