  • This study aimed to suggest an alternative income generation (AIG) for local artisanal fisheries communities in the southern coastal area of Bangladesh, which is vulnerable to climate change. To analyze the problems of local artisanal fisheries caused by climate change, field surveys and in-depth interviews with fishermen and government officials were conducted. Livelihood risk factor (LRF) in the marine fishing sector included reduction of fishing days and fish production and damage to fishing vessels and fishing gear due to cyclone and sea-level rise. LRF in the aquaculture sector included cultured fish escape, reduction of aquaculture production, and water pollution due to Monsoon flood. A common challenge for two sectors was high interest rate on commercial loans. Small-scale tank aquaculture is recommended as AIG for securing income of artisanal fisheries communities. In the early stages of dissemination of small-scale tank aquaculture technology, it is necessary to prevent fishermen from struggling to repay high-interest rate loans through technology transfer and facility support by official development assistance. The aquaculture training center, along with the technical education, will also contribute toward expansion of local distribution network and marketing support to establish a value chain for local artisanal fisheries communities.

  • In the recent WTO/DDA negotiations, discussions are progressing to forbid fishery subsidies which have negative effect on the natural environment and the fishery resources and to lower or to eliminate the tariff/non-tariff barriers that distort trade liberalization. As a result, linking to the weak structural environment of Korea's fishing villages; such a scheme has jeopardized the livelihood of fishermen who settle down in local fishing harbors. Against this backdrop, the government is attempting to positively respond to changes in the fishing environment in a number of different ways: promotion of fishing tourism, fishing harbor reinforcement in function, developing fishing villages, and harbors. With respect to investment by priority in fishing harbor development, it is very important to appropriately select investment targets based on objective criteria. A small number of harbors are chosen and investment plans by harbor are systematically devised, economic feasibility and the effects of investment are analyzed and reviewed in relation to each target harbor. This paper is designed to review and assess objective evaluation methods and the degree of importance for the designation of target harbors, dealing with local harbors in Chung Nam Do as a model. Each local government has tried to reorganize existing harbors and develop new harbors, considering a fall in the number of fishing vessels and the expansion of maritime leisure activities. In order to overcome the limit of existing harbors in function, to raise the income of fishermen, and to activate tourism, they have shifted their focus from simple functions such as vessel evacuation and anchoring to harbor beautification, which can work as a basis for fishing tourism. This paper points out that the AHP analysis method for prioritizing local harbors in Chung Nam Do should help to be chosen target harbors in other cities and provinces. Each local government has attempted to reorganize existing harbors and to develop new harbors, taking into consideration the decline in the number of fishing vessels and the expansion of maritime leisure activities. In order to overcome the limited number of functional harbors, to raise the income of fishermen, and to boost tourism, they have shifted their focus from simple functions, such as vessel evacuation and anchoring, to harbor beautification, which can work as a basis for fishing tourism. This paper shows that the AHP analysis method for prioritizing local harbors in Chungcheongnam-do could aid in the effective selection of target harbors in other cities and provinces.

  • It is undeniable that IUU Fishing are threatening so many legal fishermen' economic livelihood, negatively impact on conservation and protection of the fishery stock and ecosystem itself. Especially, negative impact of IUU Fishing resulted from the increasing fishery activities on the high seas. The Korea case of Coastal and Off-shore Fisheries, difficulties in conserving and controlling the fishery stock was brought about. Simultaneously, it is the fact that there are so many damage such as the reduction of fish Stock management program's effect, dissatisfaction of legal fishermen, over-exploiting of fish stock. Related with this kind of problem, FAO had adopted "International Plan of Action to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing(2001)". From this reason, Korea also needs to make actual efforts to prevent IUU Fishing. i.e. each nation should develop Korea action plan by Feb. 2004 and impliment it, report on implementation toward FAO. This Paper will review the definition of the IUU stipulated by "International Plan of Action on Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing" and study Korea cases of the IUU fishing. Finally, the analysis of Korea's implementation will be done, centering around the contents stated on the International Action Plan. The significance of this paper is to grope the political countermeasures against international movement of the IUU fishing prevention.

  • In order to investigate the effect of land reclamation on the life of local fishermen, a survey was conducted with the 246 people living in 12 different adjacent villages located in Hwasung District. It was found that income of residents decreased, while the amount of debts increased after reclamation. 65% of the people surveyed answered that their economic situation became worse than before and they blamed the decrease of fishery resources as the main cause. It further led to the loss of the family's means of livelihood. 40% of the people surveyed claimed that they wanted to leave the fishing village and believed that reclamation divested them of all their hope for the future. Regarding to the effect of reclamation project on the image of Hwasung District, most of the respondents have a negative view on the reclamation project. They have negative views even on the tourism, regional welfare, employment of community residents and local infrastructure. Therefore, it can be concluded that local community residents thought that reclamation project had negatively influenced their overall quality of life.

  • It can be said that the fishery industry in ancient China did not originally occupy a very special economic area even when it was started. At that time, the fishery industry was only treated as a means for the livelihood of ordinary people. Over time, the value and economic benefit of aquatic products began to be valued. Its origin can be said to have originated from Yugong(禹貢), which was established by King Yu. These records made it clear that the ancient kings placed great importance on the economic value of seafood and the importance of the fishery industry in the government. Thus, the fishery industry was established as a part of the socio-economic system. In ancient China, the fishery industry was one of the industrial systems that supported traditional Chinese society along with agriculture. It will be possible to analyze the way of thinking of modern Chinese people on the fishery industry through the study of the fishery industry in the traditional era of China. And based on this analysis, I think that it will be able to contribute to a certain extent in establishing a theoretical foundation for countermeasures against the reckless overfishing of fishery resources by Chinese fishermen in the West Sea, which is currently a problem.

  • 프리젠티즘이란, 몸이 아픔에도 불구하고 회사에 출근을 한 상태로 사회적 비용이 질병휴식보다 훨씬 더 경제학적으로 손해라 알려져 있다. COVID-19 이후, 프리젠티즘에 대한 대응책으로 상병수당에 대한 사회적 논의가 이뤄지고 있으며 특히 농림어업인 근로자는 업무 이외 질병이 발생하였을 때 생계지원에 대한 제도적 장치가 부재한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 제6차 한국근로실태조사를 이용하여 농업, 어업 및 임업종사자와 프리젠티즘과의 연관성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 2020년 10월부터 2021년 1월까지 국내 17개 시·도를 대상으로 수행된 제6차 근로환경조사 데이터를 사용하였으며 총 34,981명을 연구대상으로 하였다. 통제변수로는 성별, 연령, 자가 건강평가, 교육수준, 야간근무, 교대근무, 월소득, 직종, 주당 근로시간, 고용상태를 평가하였다. 분석결과 농림어업인은 자영업자, 고령자의 특성을 보였으며, 회귀분석 결과 농림어업인은 다른 산업 종사자에 비해 프리젠티즘 경향성과의 연관성을 분석하였을 때 모든 변수가 보정된 모델에서 농림어업인은 다른 산업 그룹에 비해 프리젠티즘 경향이 23% 증가하였다. 본 연구는 제6차 근로환경조사를 활용하여 대표성을 지닌다는 점, 상병수당에 있어 간과될 수 있는 농림어업인에 대하여 상병수당의 필요성을 객관적으로 제시하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다 할 것이다.

  • The main objective of this research aims at analyzing efficiency of government financial transfers(GFTs) to the Korean fisheries sector, using the Linear Structural Relations model(i.e., LISERL model) and the field survey data. Most policies of GFTs tend to be implemented to protect industries with weak competitive advantages such as infant and/or primary industries. Specific policy instruments include income transfers, government loans with lower interest rates, taxes and the like. Fishing activities are made at a highly changeable natural environment of the ocean with a great amount of risk and uncertainty. Fishing households make their livelihood under the small-scale fisheries. Such fisheries and fishing households have also a relatively weak market power. Because of these fisheries characteristics most coastal states have adopted a variety of government support programs. However, despite such a huge government support, during the past several decades the world fishing communities have seen a tendency of continuous fishereis resource overexploitation. For this resason there have been hot debates over the government support policies for fisheries through OECD, FAO, WTO, and UNEP. In general, policy evaluations tend to be made on the basis of benefit-cost(B/C) analysis. However, the B/C analysis may produce results quite different from real ones primarily due to many unmeasurable effects. Thus, the authors composed simple questionaires and let fishermen, government officials and academic people answer the questions. The survery was made in several ways such as post-mail and personal/group interviews. In recent years, for analysis of policy performances and effectiveness, the LISREL model has often been used, which consists of structural and measurement eqquations. This model has a good advantage of transforming unobservable variables to observable ones so that it helps construct endogenous cause and effect relationships among relevant variables. The evaluation was done from the two aspects: policy results and policy effectiveness. The policy result evaluation showed that there is a need for improvement for policy problem perception and decision-making process, while the policy effect evaluation suggested that the policy goals were successfully achieved and social justice was improved from the perspective of the entire society as well. However, the research results showed that the GFT policies rendered little contrubtion to narrowing down the gap between GFT beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries incomes.

  • 이 글은 환경논쟁에서 과학기술이 종종 중요한 구실을 하고 있지만 쟁점을 과학적 합리성의 문제로 틀 지움으로써 환경문제가 지닌 사회적, 문화적, 정치적 함의를 놓치게 할 수 있음을 새만금 간척사업을 사례로 논의하였다. 정부가 새만금 사업 재개를 결정하는데 분수령이 된 새만금 환경영향 민관공동조사단의 구성은 환경단체가 정부와 동등한 위치에서 사업을 재검토할 수 있는 기회를 제공했으나 이에 못지 않게 환경논쟁을 좁은 과학논쟁으로 한정시키는 데 기여했다. 논쟁의 양쪽 당사자가 전략적으로 비중을 둔 새만금 담수호의 장래 수질오염 논쟁은 불확실하고 가치와 관련된 갯벌보전 논란을 구체적이고 객관적으로 검증이 가능한 수질문제로 환원시켰다. 나아가 이런 논쟁의 성격변화는 수질관련 데이터와 정책을 생산하는 정부에게 유리한 조건을 제공했다. 민관공동조사단 활동 이후의 정부부처 협의과정은 수질 예측 모델링을 통해 미래의 수질을 더욱 정확하게 예측하려는 환경예측과학의 사회적 구성과정이기도 했지만, 기본적으로 정부의 정치적인 논리가 과학적인 예측을 좌우한 것으로 보인다. 결국 민관공동조사단 방식의 환경갈등 해결책은 환경운동단체의 의도와는 달리 논쟁의 폭을 좁히고 지역주민보다는 과학기술 전문가를 논쟁의 주요 당사자로 만듦으로써 운동의 제도화를 초래했다. 정부가 새만금 사업의 재개를 결정한 뒤 환경운동 내부에 성찰성과 현장성, 헌신성을 강조하는 삼보일배 등 생명평화운동이 대두한 배경에는 이처럼 환경단체가 과학적 합리성을 무비판적으로 받아들였기 때문으로 추정된다.
