Abstract

The 1990s may well be remembered as the decade when crisis first hit global fisheries. For the 200 million people, mainly from developing countries, who depend on diverse thriving aquatic ecosystems for their livelihoods, the consequences have been most severe. Since the 1950s, the world’s fishing fleet has been growing, reaching a peak between 1970 and 1989, when fleets grew at twice the rate of fish landings.
