According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the
United Nations, more than 80% of world's fish stocks are fully
exploited, over-exploited, depleted, or recovering from depletion.
Although several international agreements have promoted more
responsible fisheries, coastal states have usually maintained
national policies that enable higher harvest levels rather than
greater conservation of fish stocks, and international agreements
for more responsible fisheries have generally experienced a weak
domestic implementation. Among the major coastal fishing states,
China constitutes the largest fish producer and main exporter in
the world, and therefore presents a fascinating case-study for the
domestic implementation of international fisheries agreements. This
book investigates the degree to which China has complied with the
international agreements it has signed, and asks why it is failing
to meet expectations. Crucially, it calls for greater emphasis on
the political, rather than technical, issues involved in the
implementation of international regimes. In turn, it examines how
understanding the case of China can help us to develop solutions
for improved international compliance in the future. Providing an
improved understanding of the implementation of international
regimes, alongside an in-depth study of China's political system,
policy-making and compliance, this book will be of great interest
to students and scholars of Chinese studies, international
relations, public policy, and international law and environmental
studies. It will also be useful for policy makers working in the
fields of environmental regulation and fisheries management.
