Over the past several decades there has been increasing interest
in, and concern about, the economics of the world's capture fishery
resources. Massive amounts of resource rent are being lost because
of inadequate management and major rebuilding of fishery resources
is called for. This book draws together the latest economic theory
of the management of these resources, at both the national and the
international levels, and highlights areas where further research
is urgently required. The emphasis is on world capture fisheries,
rather than fisheries of specific regions, and examples are drawn
upon from both developed and developing countries. It combines
economic theory and empirical testing with an examination and
analysis of resource policy options, with particular emphasis on
fisheries management polices at the international level, where some
of the most difficult resource management problems are found. The
authors maintain that capture fishery resources are properly viewed
as a part of society's portfolio of natural capital assets.
Consequently, a central theme of the book is that managing such
resources should be viewed as asset management through time.
Written by two leading authorities, this accessible textbook has
been specially developed to meet the needs of students taking
courses on fisheries management as well as professionals working in
this area for governments and international organisations.
