dc.description.abstract | Irish fishing waters are currently governed as part of the Common Fisheries Policy of
the European Union. Under this regime, policies of strict regulation are employed to
provide both an ecologically sustainable resource and an economically sustainable
industry. These measures, however, have not been sufficiently effective in achieving
the desired goals. In this paper we examine the reasons for this deficiency and provide
an analysis of the alternatives. In doing so, a critical assessment of current and
proposed measures, in terms of ecological and economic sustainability is carried out.
It is argued that the current measures of regulation have failed due to both theoretical
and practical deficiencies in their application. A proposed policy alternative of a
community based rights-based management regime is discussed. | en |
