Abstract
  • This paper explores the political economy of using fishery cooperatives to advance voluntary decapitalization and rationalization that the U. S. Congress intended to benefit both vessels and processors. Game theory offers insights into the likelihood of achieving congressional intent. It is argued that the American Fisheries Act introduces a potential new market failure while attempting to rid the fishery of the open access externality.
  • Key words: voluntary fishery cooperatives, rationalization, non-cooperative game, market failure
