This book examines management systems in fishing communities in Indonesia, Laos, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. It demonstrates that good management systems must account for cultural, ecological, economic, political and social factors to succeed.
Besides the erroneous assumption that tropical fisheries are 'open access', the cases demonstrate that pre-existing systems (1) are concerned with the community of fishers and ensuring community harmony and continuity; (2) involve flexible, multiple and overlapping rights adapted to changing needs and circumstances; (3) that fisheries are just one component of a community resource assemblage and depend on both the good management of linked upstream ecosystems and risk management to ensure balanced nutritional resources of the community; and (4) pre-existing systems are greatly affected by a constellation of interacting external pressures.
Unique in topic examined; no other book on this subject published for Southeast Asia or any other region Brings new insights to the modern role of pre-existing aquatic resource management systems Adds a new dimension to the literature on tropical fisheries and management of fishing communities Offers comparative analysis based on 5 Southeast Asian countries: Indonesia, Laos, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

This book examines pre-existing management systems in fishing communities in Indonesia, Laos, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. Besides the erroneous assumption that tropical fisheries are 'open access', the cases demonstrate that pre-existing systems (1) are concerned with the community of fishers and ensuring community harmony and continuity; (2) involve flexible, multiple and overlapping rights adapted to changing needs and circumstances; (3) that fisheries are just one component of a community resource assemblage and depend on both the good management of linked upstream ecosystems and risk management to ensure balanced nutritional resources of the community; and (4) pre-existing systems are greatly affected by a constellation of interacting external pressures.The cases presented in Managing Coastal and Inland Waters demonstrate that good management systems must account for such cultural, ecological, economic, political and social context factors to achieve their goals.
