Book Description
Fisheries management in the developing world is concerned largely with the problem of creating a commercial or industrial fishery sector. Fisheries development in India was initiated through a programme of planned technological change. The state of Kerala which is still the primary producer and exporter of marine fish from the country has been the focal point of this developmental strategy. Fisheries development in the state has not been studied in much detail in the past. This book born out of an earlier doctoral study is a vast treatise on the subject of technological change and economic development. It gives a blend of the economic theory of technological change and the process of fisheries development in the state of Kerala. The book, starting with a brief introductory chapter, enunciates the global literature on fisheries development, the conceptual framework and methodology of the study, the state of the art of the traditional sector of the primary marine fishing industry of Kerala, the process of technological change in the marine fishing industry of the state, their indicators, effects and characteristics, all in good succession and in great detail. The book in its core argues that the development achieved by the industry was limited and it was restricted by the limited growth strategy followed by the state. A concluding chapter of this book gives an array of findings of the study and offers valuable suggestions to the policy maker. With a post-script, it keeps the reader abreast of the developments in the industry. The book, apart from its theoretical underpinning, is rich with empirical data garnered from various sources. It also offers an excellent bibliography on the subject. Its language is smooth. It should be appealing to students, teachers, scholars and policy makers everywhere. Contents Chapter 1: Introduction; Chapter 2: Economic Theory and Primary Marine Fishing Industry- A Review of Literature; Chapter 3: Conceptual Framework and Methodology; Chapter 4: Primary Marine Fishing Industry- The Traditional Sector; Chapter 5: Technological Change in the Primary Marine Fishing Industry- The Process; Chapter 6: Indicators of Technological Change; Chapter 7: Characteristics of Technological Change; Chapter 8: Summary of Findings, Conclusions and Recommendations.

Book Description
This Draft Marine Bill (Cm. 7351, ISBN 9780101735124) contains the following: a policy paper; the draft Marine Bill and explanatory notes; an impact assessment. The Bill sets out the Government's approach to a number of marine related issues, including environmental protection of the coastal marine environment and the seas surrounding the coast as well as access to the coastal environment for recreation. The legislation set out in this Bill was originally proposed in "Sea Change", a Marine White Paper, published in March 2007 (Cm. 7047, ISBN 9780101704724). The White Paper itself had proposed a strategic system of marine planning to balance conservation, energy and resource needs, using the principle of sustainable development. The Draft proposals in this Bill puts the earlier proposals of the White Paper into a legislative framework, which includes: the creation of the Marine Management Organisation; deliverance of new marine planning systems, including establishing new powers to enable the Government to put in place a network of marine conservation zones to protect marine life; better licensing decisions for licensing activities in the seas; reforms to a range of marine, migratory and freshwater fisheries management arrangements; allow greater access to the English coast. Comments on the Draft Bill should be submitted in writing by 26 June 2008.

Book Description
Anthropological studies of marine fishermen have explored immense diversity among fishing societies, and the management strategies of marine resources in the context of globalization and changing technologies deserve the utmost attention from researchers in an uncertain economy. In India, fishing communities belong to various different castes and religions. This book presents an anthropological study of Hindu marine fishermen in two neighboring fishing villages situated in the same coastal belt, but administered by two different state governments (Kerala and Pondicherry). It explores the ways in which state interventions influence the development paradigm of a marginalized society like marine fishermen, and discusses the distribution pattern of production systems and its significance at the household level. The book also considers the gendered forms of economic transformation in fishing due to declining marine resources, and technological and climate change. It also focuses on the role of women fish vendors in market spaces as instituted by their distribution and credit connections and the unique experiences of the development process through anxieties, compromises and survival in an uncertain economy. The book will be of interest to researchers, administrators and NGOs working for the inclusive development of marginalized communities sharing common property resources.

Book Description
This handbook is the most comprehensive and interdisciplinary work on marine conservation and fisheries management ever compiled. It is the first to bridge fisheries and marine conservation issues. Its innovative ideas, detailed case studies, and governance framework provide a global special perspective over time and treat problems in the high seas, community fisheries, industrial fishing, and the many interactions between use and non-use of the oceans. Its policy tools and ideas for overcoming the perennial problems of over fishing, habitat and biodiversity loss address the facts that many marine ecosystems are in decline and plagued by overexploitation due to unsustainable fishing practices. An outstanding feature of the book is the detailed case-studies on conservation practice and fisheries management from around the world. These case studies are combined with 'foundation' chapters that provide an overview of the state of the marine world and innovative and far reaching perspectives about how we can move forward to face present and future challenges. The contributors include the world's leading fisheries scientists, economists, and managers. Ecosystem and incentive-based approaches are described and complemented by tools for cooperative, participatory solutions. Unique themes treated: fisher behavior and incentives for management beyond rights-based approaches; a synthesis of proposed 'solutions'; a framework for understanding and overcoming the critical determinants of the decline in fisheries, degradation of marine ecosystems, and poor socio-economic performance of many fishing communities; models for innovative policy instruments; a plan of action and adoption pathways to promote sustainable fishing practices globally. Collectively, the handbook's many valuable contributions offer a way forward to both understanding and resolving the multifaceted problems facing the world's oceans.
