Abstract

The New Zealand fisheries quota management system (QMS) using individual transferable quotas (ITQs) has an international reputation for good fisheries management. The consequences for many coastal fishermen and their communities, are, however, another story. My fear is that if this form of ITQs is used for the coastal fisheries of developing nations, the consequences for artisanal fishermen and their communities will be far more devastating.
