Abstract

This paper provides information particularly relevant to small-scale fisheries in which there is a desire to establish fisherfolk (fishing industry) organizations with the ability to participate meaningfully and effectively in fisheries management. It focuses on a situation in which individualistic social networks rather than social cohesion and community prevail in the industry, where fisherfolk organization formation has proven difficult, and where the state has a limited capacity for management. Also, in this case, resource and resource user boundaries cannot be easily defined. This climate may constrain the feasibility of institutional arrangements for fisheries co-management. An approach used to overcome these constraints in Barbados is described.
