France: A New Vision of the Sea
Local and regional ‘parliaments of the sea’ can ensure the participation of society in the management of marine areas while respecting the rights of fishers. An example from France.
“Numerous ethnographic studies show that the sea and its resources are not an open-access resource, but a common good, collectively controlled by artisanal fishing communities through traditional institutions, and that privatisation or coercive measures by public administrations risk leading to the decline or even disappearance of these communities.”
