Fishing in a sea of sharks: Reconstruction and development in the South African fishing industry - Tapa blanda

Fishing in a Sea of Sharks sets out to explain the transformation process of the post-Apartheid South African fisheries industry from 1994 onwards, focusing on allocation - who got what? - and what the new entrants did with their quotas. By following the process on central level as well as in a number of selected fishing communities the book aims at presenting both a 'topdown' and a 'bottom-up' perspective. This book also attempts to give the first coherent presentation of the reform process and should therefore be of interest for academics as well as administrators in the field of fisheries management.
