Abstract

At the time of declaring their Exclusive Economic or Fishing Zones (EEZs/EFZs), the developing countries were mainly concerned about utilizing the vastly underexploited marine fishery resources. The general assumption was that resources were abundant in nature. Marine fisheries were seen as an excellent source of employment, income, food security and foreign exchange. In this process, the need for conservation and management was overlooked. Except for protecting fisheries resources from blast fishing, and fine-meshed nets, conservation and management was largely seen as a problem of rich countries.
