Note: see the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean<\/a>.<\/p>\n The main characteristics of Mediterranean fisheries activities are:<\/p>\n There are also ecological aspects, which in addition to those of every semi-enclosed sea, make the Mediterranean a fragile and particularly vulnerable ecosystem. The following aspects are stressed:<\/p>\n All these economic, social, biological and environmental considerations clearly indicate the need to develop joint, co-ordinated and rational management of the Mediterranean Sea, involving fisheries administrations as well as environmental administrations, through adequate co-ordination.<\/p>\n In the meantime, there has been a series of international fisheries agreements in the 1990s which seem to clearly indicate a greater degree of political awareness among the fisheries administrations to face the ever-increasing problems of over-fishing.<\/p>\n Such agreements are mainly:<\/p>\n In addition, for the Mediterranean only, two Diplomatic Conferences on Fisheries Management in the Mediterranean were held (Crete, December 1994 and Venice, November 1996), supported, in the interim, by the Euromediterranean Conference of Barcelona (November 1995), whose solemn declaration points out that:<\/p>\n Spain is a country in which a sustainable fishing, supported by the best scientific knowledge available, is of considerable economic and, especially, social importance. In addition to that, Spain, through the Agencia Española para la Cooperación Internacional [AECI, Spanish Bureau for International Co-operation] has committed itself to enhance international co-operation, with special emphasis on developing countries, and has decided to create a trust fund in FAO to put this project into effect. This project is due to last 5 years and aims to attain these objectives, which are undoubtedly shared by all countries.<\/p>\n In the book “International Incidents for Discussion in Conversation Classes”, in relation to this subject<\/a>, L. Oppenheim wrote in 1909: An island rises in the open sea three and a half miles from the shore of state A and is acquired through occupation by state B, which establishes a fishing-station there. Very soon a conflict arises between states A and B on account of the fisheries in the waters between the new-born island and the continent.<\/p>\n How is the controversy to be settled?<\/p>\n In the Encyclopedia of Public Administration and Public Policy, [1] Frank Alcock offers the following summary about the topic of (Environmental Policy) Fisheries Management: The purpose of this entry is to provide a concise but broad overview of fisheries management. After providing an overview of the need for fisheries management, the entry proceeds with discussions of objectives, tools, fisheries production and subsectors, governance-scale issues, and a concise historical summary. The entry concludes with a short prognosis for the future.<\/p>\n In relation to the international law practice and protection of marine environment and marine conservation in this world legal Encyclopedia, please see the following section:<\/p>\n About this subject:<\/p>\n Note: there is detailed information and resources under these topics during the year 2013, covered by this entry on protection of marine environment and marine conservation in this law Encyclopedia.<\/p>\n Embracing mainstream international law, this section on fisheries (fishery) zone explores the context, history and effect of the area of the law covered here.<\/p>\n Agriculture, Forestry And Fisheries<\/a><\/p>\n See the dictionary definition of Fisheries<\/a>.<\/p>\n [rtbs name=”xxx-xxx”]<\/p>\n Agriculture, Forestry And Fisheries<\/a> > Fisheries<\/a><\/p>\n Disputed Fisheries: International Incident In the book "International Incidents for Discussion in Conversation Classes", in relation to this subject, L.
