Description

The oceans are heavily overfished, and the greatest challenges to effective fisheries management are not technical but political and economic. In this work, D.G. Webster describes how the political economy of fisheries has evolved and highlights patterns that are linked to sustainable transitions in specific fisheries. Grounded in the concept of responsive governance, Webster's interdisciplinary analysis goes beyond the conventional view of the 'tragedy of the commons.'
