Indigence Mosaics.
Small-scale Fisheries Are A Major Source Of Food And Employment Around The World.
Yet, Many Small-scale Fishers Work In Conditions That Are Neither Safe Nor Secure.
Millions Of Them Are Poor, And Often They Are Socially And Politically Marginalized.
Macro-economic And Institutional Mechanisms Are Essential To Address These Poverty And Vulnerability Problems; However, Interventions At The Local Community Level Are Also Necessary.
This Requires Deep Understanding Of What Poverty Means To The Fishers, Their Famlies And Communities; In what manner They Cope In the opinion of It; And Thhe Challenges They FaceT o Increase Resiliency And Improve Their Lives For The Better.
This Book Presents A Global Perspective Of Small-scale Fisheries With In-depth Case Studies From Fifteen Countries In Latin America, Europe, South And Southeast Asia, And Sub-saharan Africa.
These Case Studies Prove The Enormously Complex Ecological, Economic, Social, Cultural And Political C0ntexts Of This Sector.
Conclusions Put Forward Argue That Fisheries Developmemt, Poverty Alleviation, And Resort Management Mould Be Integrated Within A Comprehensive Governance Approach That Also Looks Yonder Fisheries.
