This handbook is unique in its consideration of social and cultural
contributions to sustainable oceans management. It is also unique
in its deconstruction of the hegemonic value attached to the oceans
and in its analysis of discourses regarding what national
governments in the Global South should prioritise in their oceans
management strategy. Offering a historical perspective from the
start, the handbook reflects on the confluence of (western)
scientific discourse and colonialism, and the impact of this on
indigenous conceptions of the oceans and on social identity. With
regard to the latter, the authors are mindful of the
nationalisation of island territories worldwide and the impact of
this process on regional collaboration, cultural exchange and the
valuation of the oceans. Focusing on global examples, the handbook
offers a nuanced, region relevant, contemporary conceptualisation
of blue heritage, discussing what will be required to achieve an
inclusive oceans economy by 2063, the end goal date of the African
Union's Agenda 2063. The analysis will be useful to established
academics in the field of ocean studies, policymakers and
practitioners engaged in research on the ocean economy, as well as
graduate scholars in the ocean sciences.
