Product Description
This study provides a detailed, systematic analysis of the evolution and structure of the Icelandic fishing industry supported by numerous statistics which should be of interest to all fisheries manager, fisheries economists and fisheries scientists. Discussing, in turn, the catching, processing and marketing aspects of the industry, the text then examines the original extensive phase of development, and the subsequent transition to intensive development. The fisheries management system and its success in enhancing the economic efficiency of the fishing industry as a whole is explained. A concluding section assesses the overall economic performance of the Icelandic fisheries, and compares it to that of other nations highlighting those areas where the Icelandic experience might serve as a model.
