Abstract
  • Fisheries management is a problematic issue for many states. It is complex and among its constituents governmental policy plays a decisive role. Fisheries management is a big political issue for Russia. Russian fishing industry is in a disastrous state. The Russian government speaks a lot about food security and develops a great number of plans, concepts, and programs in fisheries; undertakes multiple restructuring of the fisheries ruling body and replaces incompetent government officials; tries different approaches to fisheries resources distribution on the payment bases (auctions, trading the right to fish) but situation only aggravates. The functions of the State Fisheries Committee are dissipated over more than 10 federal bodies, what leads to jurisdictional disputes and conflicts. The governmental policy, concentrated not on the resources management and conservation but on financial flows distribution, has led to the bankruptcy of the big fishing enterprises and destruction of fisheries communities. There is no legal basis for the effective functioning of the industry. Such policy is forcing Russian fishermen to conduct illegal fishing. Bioresources of the Russian Pacific seas are drastically running out under a heavy pressure of foreign fleets and transnational economic groups. Unless Russia takes into consideration the interests of her fishermen she will lose her industry, remaining a supplier of cheap fish to foreign markets. The immediate measures are needed to improve the situation. The successful fisheries management experience of the developed economies based on the sustainability principle could help Russia.
