"Managing a natural resource: the case of fisheries" by Ivar Ekeland
Fish are the main source of proteins for hundreds of millions of people, and they are disappearing at an alarming rate. The fishing industry has now reached the scale where it can empty the oceans, and major fisheries, such as the cod fishery in Newfoundland, have already collapsed.
Is there a way to manage fisheries so that human and fish can live together on this planet ? I will show how different legal structures, managing the fish as a common good, or having a competitive market for fish, or a monopoly market, lead to vastly different outcomes.
