This is a fairly
substantial text which takes as a starting point the various
debates concerning the reassessment of existing management systems
and the development of more appropriate systems for the future. As
a contribution to the debate, this book focuses on the need for
institutional change in order to accommodate new policy
objectives, new stakeholders and new regulatory measures.
Alternative management systems are examined at different levels
from the regionalization of the Common Fisheries Policy through
coastal state management, to various forms of user participation
in the management of local fisheries. Issues of "integrated
fisheries management" are explored through a number of approaches
including ecosystem management, the Marine Stewardship Council and
integrated coastal zone management. Several contributions focus on
alternative means of controlling fishing effort and their
enforcement.
