This presentation summarizes the findings from eight African countries where case studies of co-management arrangements in artisanal fisheries have been undertaken during the period 1996-97. The countries concerned are Benin, Cote d'Ivoire, Malawi, Mozambique, Senegal, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. In most of the cases co- management represents a new approach to fisheries management. In some cases, it has only been applied within the last 3-5 years and in a few it is merely being considered as an option. The comparison of cases at this early stage gives an indication as to what appears to be the critical issues in the planning and implementation of fisheries co- management arrangements in the African context. |

The crisis in the fishing industry has gradually led to increasingly rigorous rights and rules of fishermen's activities. This, therefore, places fisheries management institutions in the very centre of the debate, where the possible solutions to the problems may be found. The current crisis in fisheries management can thus be argued to be caused to some degree by a lack of legitimacy of several management regimes. Governmentcentred regulation which has been applied in the past (quota management, input restriction, limited entry and individual fishing quotas) creates incentives to race for fish, break the rules and to mis-report catches. In addition it has also been expensive to administer and enforce these rules. |

As part of a global comparative study of user-participation in fisheries management, a neo-institutional economic framework analysis is applied to the South African Deep-sea Hake Fishery to evaluate past and present co-management arrangements. It is postulated that the comprehensive partnerships that exist will struggle to remain legitimate and functional during major changes in the access-rights regime. The government is redistributing quota to new entrants and previously-disadvantaged South Africans, resulting in competition between the established demersal trawl fleet and a new longline sector for access rights. The established industry is currently undertaking restructuring via investment schemes, joint ventures and share agreements. The relationship... |
