| Title: | GLOBALISATION AND THE SUSTAINABILITY OF WORLD FISHERIES: A VIEW FROM LATIN AMERICA |
| Authors: | Thorpe, Andy
Bennett, Elizabeth |
| Issue Date: | 2001 |
| Abstract: | This paper describes the integration of Latin American marine fisheries into the global production system in the post-1945 period and the role of foreign and domestic fleets in this process. Through reference to the state-denial theories found in the globalisation literature, it charts the impact that the globalisation process has had upon the exploitation and sustainability of fish stocks in Latin American waters. It argues that while globalisation may indeed boost environmental awareness and lead to a more sustainable level of production through the decreased influence of local political interests, this has yet to happen in the principal Latin American fishing nations. |
