Ben,
Some additional ideas: 1. Film - They Live in Guinea - features the issues surrounding the menhaden fishery in the Chesapeake Bay http://www.cinemaguild.com/catalog/catalog_environment.htm (shows the institutional price, it must be cheaper for individuals) Related to that, we have used a class simulation on the menhaden fisheries that undergraduate students have really enjoyed. I can send it if it would be of interest. 2. Reading - I use the review of fisheries in Chasek, Downie and Brown Welsh's Global Environmental Politics. It provides a really good overview of the regime and the institutions. Both my undergraduate students at William and Mary and graduate students at the Virginia Institute for Marine Science found this overview really useful when we discussed international fisheries policy. And related to that, if you want to show which international institutions are engaged in fisheries, you can use the database we have begun to compile on international organizations and the environment. The table shows institutions across 12 issue areas. Click on the topic of interest and it will list the international organizations active in that issue area - http://www.environmentalgovernance.org/database/. This is work in progress, so there are certainly gaps. We have not included NGOs, so the Marine Stewardship Council is not listed, for example.

I have two questions 1) Do you know of any videos out there that I might show in one class that would nicely and graphically illustrate the problems? 2) What are your recommendations for an article or book that nicely brings a focus to the institutions that have developed to address them?
