This book provides an original and groundbreaking account of the applicability and key contributions of international law to small-scale fisheries, a fisheries subsector that has been historically overlooked by governments and international legal scholarship.

Small-scale fisheries comprise most of the world’s capture fisheries workforce, sustain the livelihoods of fishers and their communities, while building and transmitting traditional knowledge, and culture. Significant attention has been given to small-scale fisheries by the international community over the past decade, building the momentum for dedicated research on such a topic. Nevertheless, the literature examining small-scale fisheries from an international legal perspective remains scarce. This book fills this gap by systemically examining different international legal regimes to unravel the normative foundations for securing the meaningful participation of small-scale fisheries peoples in international fisheries management. It connects the ecosystem approach, a key principle of international fisheries law, and the human rights regime to elucidate the benefits that participatory international fisheries management bring to enhance both the ecological and social aspects of fisheries sustainability. It also examines the extent to which fisheries governance is democratic, and provides an enabling framework for the integration of fishers’ knowledge into international fisheries management. It is thereby oriented toward more justice and fair outcomes for small-scale fisheries.

This book will be a valuable resource to academics and researchers with an interest in the governance of fisheries in international law, the law of the sea, environmental law and human rights law; as well as to practitioners and policymakers working on the development and implementation of laws and policies governing fisheries and natural resources.
