"Game management areas in Zambia aim to combine nature conservation with economic empowerment of rural households. By looking at households inside and outside game management areas, this study advances the knowledge of the impact of community based natural resource management on household welfare. The paper focuses on the economic welfare of households living inside game management areas. It tries to answer the question: Do the households in game management areas enjoy higher levels of welfare relative to the conditions they would have been in had the area not been designated as a game management area? Within the game management area, the paper tries to determine the factors that influence household participation in natural resource management, and whether the participating households get any extra benefits. Also of interest is whether such benefits of living in a game management area, and, once in such an area, those of participating accrue more to the poorer segments of the communities. The study finds that the gains from living in a game management area and from active participation in natural resource management are large but unevenly distributed. Only game management areas near Kasanka, Lavushi, Isangano, and South Luangwa national parks in the sample show significant benefits to general and participating households. And in those areas, the poor do not seem to gain even when they participate actively. More even distribution of gains from game management areas across households near different park systems and across the poor and the non-poor should be a continuing goal of national policy makers.

Dans les pays de l’OCDE comme dans les non membres, la situation des pêches mondiales soulève des problèmes de cohérence entre le développement et les activités halieutiques dans plusieurs domaines de l’action des pouvoirs publics. La présente publication examine ce dossier d’actualité et propose un cadre où inscrire une analyse approfondie des problèmes de cohérence dans cinq grands domaines d’action où interagissent les politiques de la pêche et de développement, à savoir l’environnement, la technologie, l’économie, les questions sociales et la gestion publique. Ce cadre d’analyse est illustré par dix études de cas concrètes nationales et régionales, lesquelles abordent des questions allant des accords de pêche internationaux à la relation entre pêche artisanale et pêche industrielle, en passant par les échanges de produits halieutiques, les politiques de développement, le développement de la pêche et la lutte contre la pauvreté.
