Abstract

Many modern fisheries management systems create incentives to overfish,leading to negative economic and environmental consequences for human welfare andmarine ecosystem health. In this paper, we review problems faced by many fisheries man-agers, including overcapitalization, by-catch of nontarget species, and alteration of marinefood webs. We recommend the formulation of alternative fisheries management goals basedon risk-averse, multispecies management. We discuss alternative fisheries managementsystems, including transferable fishing privileges, community development quotas, andindividual transferable quotas (ITQs).
