Abstract

The chapters focus on three main themes: first, what value does stakeholder participation bring to fisheries governance? Its advocates claim that participation improves the quality of decision-making; resolves conflicts; and increases compliance with regulations. On the other hand, critics argue that participation is often unnecessary, ineffective, costly, time-consuming, and cosmetic. The second theme is the relationship between the participatory mode and the current switch from single species-based fisheries management to the ecosystem-based approach (EBA). In what way does widening the extent of public participation contribute to the EBA? Third is the vexed question of the relationship between fishers' experiential knowledge and fisheries science: how far does fishers' knowledge improve our understanding of the marine environment? The central message of the book is that while stakeholder participation is beneficial, it carries with it responsibilities as well as rights: all stakeholders have a public duty to act as stewards for the marine environment.

Abstract

The shift away from the management of individual resources to the broader perspective of ecosystems is no longer confined to academia and think tanks where it first began; the ecosystem paradigm also is beginning to take root in government policy and programs.This volume provides innovative and timely approaches for improving and sustaining socioeconomic benefits from LMEs. The authors describe methodologies and actions for moving forward in halting the downward resource sustainability spiral and advancing toward the recovery of depleted fish stocks, restoration of degraded habitats, and r

Abstract

Pour éviter la destruction de communautés lichéniques menacées par un projet d'excavation dans la Somme, deux expériences de déplacement de pelouses riches en lichens terricoles ont été réalisées. Dans cet article, nous décrivons les méthodes conçues et employées par le carrier, avec l'aide de l'établissement public chargé du développement de la Côte Picarde ainsi que les observations faites après la mise en oeuvre de ces actions expérimentales. Nous discutons des améliorations du succès de l'opération et des modalités de gestion, avec des références à la biologie des lichens, aux contextes écologiques, aux objectifs de conservation et d'exploitation. Ce projet, unique par l'importance des surfaces de banquettes de sol déplacées, concernait l'extension d'une exploitation de galets par la société GSM assistée par le Syndicat Mixte pour l'Aménagement de la Côte Picarde".
