Vertical mergers are mostly perceived in the literature as a way of reducing production and transaction costs.
However, vertical restrictions or raising rivals’ costs (RRC) are taken into great consideration by the antitrust authorities as
potential consequences of vertical integration. The case of the French tuna industry seems of particular...
Madagascar is the world, fourth biggest island, and
one of the world‚ poorest countries. Given its severe
poverty, Madagascar has no large-scale domestic fleet. Consequently, it is required by the United Nations
Convention on the Law of the Sea to rent these un-exploited resources to distant water fleets (DWFs)
from...
Fish are marketed with various intermediaries between producers and final consumers. The number and the nature of the intermediaries, market structures at each stage of the value chain and other factors related to the organisation of markets may substantially affect the transmission of information throughout the chain. The present study...
Our paper aims to study the image of the European fisheries sector, as perceived by European citizens. To
our knowledge, no approach has focused on the perceived impact of fishing on the halieutic resources. More precisely, we seek to analyze the perceived impact on the marine environment of fishing activities...
A recent study in agricultural products has brought out evidence of asymmetrical transmission of price changes according to the sign (positive or negative) of past variation. Interestingly, asymmetry was more commonplace for products with a lower elasticity of supply due to the perishable nature of products. A similar study based...
In wood-based composites, the glue-line (interface) between wood-strands affects the stress transfer from one member to the next. The glue-line properties determine the rate of load transfer between phases and these properties depend on wood species, surface preparation, glue properties, glue penetration into wood cells, and moisture content of the...

Consequently, this fishery has experienced serious export problems during the last decade. This paper is...
