      title = {Fisheries, quota management and quota transfer :  rationalization through bio-economics /},
      abstract = {This volume examines the impact of fish stock assessment  and catch share arrangements in context through case  studies and in terms of ecosystem, economy and society. It  examines the rationalizing work of bio-economic projects,  especially the institutionalization of individual  transferable quota (ITQ) in fisheries: what impact have  they had on fisheries and fishers? The contributing authors  understand ITQ and quota management as bio-economic  projects, that is, as widely deployed but locally  constituted projects that combine biological and economic  logics to rationalize production and, in this case, fish.  Politicians and managers use these projects and the models  that justify them to rationalize fisheries in favor of  modern technology and for capital and species efficiency.  Aimed at a diverse interdisciplinary fisheries management  readership, and designed as a guide to issues emerging in  any assessment of ITQ, the book is a timely investigation  of the origins and diverse experiences of ITQ projects,  including resistance to them, attempts to develop fisheries  management around them, and experiences of the risks that  come with them.},
