There is a high level of fishery resources exploitation in dense coastal waters region such as North Coast of Java. This is because of the increasing numbers of traditional fishing gears was concentrated on the territory. For the past ten years, the rate of resource utilization in Tegal waters and...
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...
This paper looks at some of the seemingly positive developments in fisheries governance over the last twenty-five years. It asks why fisheries management, if improving, is still failing in its basic objective of managing the people who catch fish so as to ensure that there are enough fish left out...
As discussions of co-management and community-based management have become popular, recent works have paid growing attention to how fishers are involved in fisheries management. Comparing the fisheries management that has been developed in the hard clam fisheries of New Jersey, U.S.A., with those of Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan, this paper examines...
Community-Based Fishery Management (CBFM) appears as a successful approach to avoid on tragedy of the commons in coastal fishery resources. Conditions necessary for that success are difficult to assess. Critical Enabling Conditions (CECs) are the necessary conditions to obtain institutional sustainability as the base of successful Common-Pool Resources (CPR) management...
This paper focuses on the consequences of managing small-scale fisheries without consideration of geographical differentiation in reproductive potential through a species range. Because fishing costs
increase with distance, the alternative port locations are predicted to have substantially different impacts on biological and economic performance variables when there are no spatial...
As the fishery product demand is rising now, the fishery activities are also increasing. However, some of them are done in irresponsible way, like using the fishing gears that able to destroy the environment. This paper is aimed to review sasi laut, as an indigenous knowledge conducted in some villages...
Japan is considered as one of the most successful marine fishery co-management or CBFM regimes. However, in 2001 the Japanese government was obliged to introduce new measures in order to recover several species under overexploitation. One example is the Resource Recovery Plans (RRP) that in all Japan accounts 51 fisheries....
The state of the world at the beginning of 21 century is terribly bad from all points of views such as environment, food supply, resources, economy and security essential for human survival. Our civilization based on technological development and mass consumption has been using up all resources on land and...
