Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
This paper proposes a redefinition of the rights and responsibilities of states in relation to high seas fishing, and a model for governance of high seas fisheries that would ensure accountability for fisheries management performance. We propose that the high seas freedom to fish be transformed to a right to share in the net wealth generated from sustainable harvest of high seas fisheries. The features of this right would be (i) all nations have a right to benefit from high seas fisheries, (ii) all harvesting should be environmentally sustainable, and (iii) management agencies should be accountable. Rather than relying on the cooperation of nations through regional fisheries organisations, we suggest the establishment of a management organisation in which nations are beneficial owners. The paper is put forward as a `think piece' to prompt discussion and further research on alternative governance arrangements to manage high seas fisheries.
