APPENDIX A

OUTLINE OF ECONOMICS 864-4, STUDIES

IN

ECONOMIC FISHERIES MANAGEMENT

The course will analyse techniques of economic fisheries management

and assess their effects in a variety of circumstances, based on the

study of several

well documented projects in fisheries management. The

projects will cover cases of mature and developing fisheries, cases in

developed and developing countries, cases of fisheries subject to

national and to international jurisdictions.

Topics covered will include open access and limited entry regimes,

gear requlatjon and group conflict management, impact of taxation and

licensing, economic effects of conservation and biological management,

management regimes for trans-boundary stocks, and management by inter-

national convention.

Following are examples of studies that will be explored:

LIBRARY

RESOUIES

Library resources for Economics 864 are sufficient. The course will

use much of the same background material as is currently being used for

-

?

Economics 863 (Fisheries Economics).

A "long bibliography" (running to 63 pages) has been developed by

P. Copes, listing background material for both Economics 863 and

Economics 864. Almost all of the items listed are available in the

Library, or from the private collection of P. Copes, or from

both.
