Landlords, leaseholders & sweat equity: changing property regimes in aquaculture
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper explores the tensions, issues and problems being experienced by one small fishing community off Canada’s east coast, as it confronts the challenges of a rapidly growing aquaculture industry. It examines the significance for the community of changing property regimes, directly related to a government policy, proclaimed in October 2000, that is transforming ownership patterns in the industry, and creating new property regimes through the allocation of aquaculture sites. It argues that this policy reflects a fundamentally different ideology that is taking away community control over resources and threatening livelihoods dependent upon the wild fishery. r 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
