Abstract

Forty-five years ago the captain of a ship persuaded the Japanese government to import American technology to build Ski raw-i Maw, Japan’s first purse-seiner. Since then things have never been quite the same for Japan’s fisheries. Not only have stocks of diverse fish species dwindled, but Japan’s artisanal pole-and-line fishermen have also been put to immense misery.
