Abstract

After 60 years of scholarship (provided that we consider Raymond Firth’s monograph on the Malay fishermen to be the seminal work), social scientists seem finally to be having some impact on fisheries management. Co-management, which originated as a discourse among fisheries social researchers some 20 years ago, is now to be found everywhere. In December 2003, I was at a conference in Cape Town, which revealed that co-management is now written into the fisheries legislation of a number of countries in Southern Africa.
