Building on case studies, the present work presents an overview and a more general analysis of fisheries regulation and policies. It reviews some of the historical developments of the current policy objectives of fisheries management, analysing the alternative approaches taken to attain these objectives and the implications of each. The intent here is to clarify the goals of fisheries management and to identify the interdependence and necessary trade-offs between these goals. The final chapters evaluate the various approaches taken to regulate the fisheries and suggest appropriate directions for reform.
