Abstract

Fishworkers in France will remember 1993 as the Black Year. Their anger exploded in February when, after the bad weather season, the fish-workers sailed again only to find that prices of fish had crashed. As fish stocks piled up in the auction hails, the mechanism set up by the fishworkers’ co-operatives to control prices was soon thrown out of gear. These co-operatives, built around each landing place, had been supporting the fishworkers’ activities.
