Abstract

During the past decade, fish resource management by a system of Individual Transferable Quotas or ITQs has been strongly promoted as a solution to the problems of ineffective management and economic inefficiency in the fisheries. The ITQ model is attractive to resource managers for a number of reasons. First, it leaves the difficult problem of distributing fishing quotas fairly and equitably among fishermen and fishing communities to the market mechanism, making life easier for the managers.
