Sample text

Record of domestic fisheries management. Establishing an effective cooperative management arrangement would seem straightforward. An agreement was put into place in late December 1997. The implementation was, however, faulty. The first fishing season under the agreement was to commence on 1 March 1998. Allowable activities of the two fleets during January and February 1998 were ill defined, thus creating an unanticipated window of noncooperation. Given that the two fleets probably regarded one another with some suspicion during this period, and that the resource was highly valued and vulnerable, the outcome was not difficult to predict, applying the principles of game theory.

It means further that one can, within limits, engage in positive investment in the natural capital by harvesting less than the growth. World capture fishery resources have, however, been seen historically as the quintessential common pool resource, in that, in the past at least, it was deemed to be too costly to put in place effective property rights to the resource. The common pool aspects of the resource have been seen to lead to resource overexploitation and economic waste. Economists have traditionally analyzed management of capture fishery resources confined to the waters of a single State by contrasting management of a fishery by an all-powerful social manager—the ideal, the target—with a pure, open-access, common pool fishery, in which the resource is exploited by a very large number of fishers, and in which there is a complete absence of resource property rights or government regulations.

2 Review of the management of internationally shared fishery resources: stage one—transboundary fish stocks The background survey begins with a discussion of the relatively straightforward case of transboundary fish stock management. This is followed by an examination of the more complex case of straddling fish stocks. Economists view capture fishery resources, as they do all natural resources, as a form of natural capital, assets that are capable of yielding a stream of economic returns (broadly defined) through time.
