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.

Hi Geped,

We've added this year a section on fisheries for our class on "International
Environmental Policy and Management" (Graeme Auld is TAing)

We're spending time on both the problem and the institutions that are
evolving to address them.

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?

Thanks in advance,


Ben (and Graeme)

Hi Ben 
  you might also want to look at the edited volume: A Sea Change, edited by 
myself (Syma Ebbin) with Alf Hakon Hoel and Are Sydnes, published by Springer 
Verlag in 2005.  We focus on the establishment of the EEZ and have a range of 
chapters focusing on different institutions in different regions of the world.

It may be a little off base for your purposes, Ben, but Sam LaBudde's "Where 
have all the dolphins gone?" put out by Earth Island Institute in the early 
1990s was just superb, highlighting one of the tragic absurdities of commercial 
fisheries practices.  He won the Goldman Prize for it. 
www.goldmanprize.org/node/123

Another one was an Eye Witness special report on Paul Watson and the Sea 
Shepherd Conservation Society, showing gripping footage of the SSCS ship 
ramming a Japanese drift-net vessel.


Cheers,

Bill

Re: Global fisheries management

2008-03-29 Thread Howard S Schiffman
Dear Ben, Graeme and other GEPers,

For a video that demonstrates the risk of bycatch from long-line fishing I 
recommend "The Last Journey of the Leatherback" produced by the Sea Turtle 
Restotation Project and other organizations. The focus is the leatherback and 
long-lining but the footage of what happens on the long-lining vessels is 
vivid. One can easily explain to a class this ilustrates just one aspect of 
destructive fishing.

For a book recommendation, if you will forgive my self-promotion, my recently 
published book "Marine Conservation Agreements: The Law and Policy of 
Reservations and Vetoes" looks at the history of flawed decision-making in 
RFMOs and other marine institutions. The book proceeds from a regime-by-regime 
analysis of the major RFMOs as well as the IWC, CITES and CMS (including 
several CMS progeny regimes). The publishers is Martinus Nijhoff-Brill and the 
book is part of the Publications on Ocean Development series (ISBN: 978 90 04 
16385 0). Here is the link on the Martinus Nijhoff-Brill website: 
http://www.brill.nl/default.aspx?partid=10&pid=29153.

Hope this helps,

Howard
