초록

The introduction of the concept of the Exclusive Economic Zone(EEZ) has an impact on the rules governing the delimitation of the maritime boundaries between adjacent states. However, traditionally fisheries resources have been regarded as a kind of ‘common property’. The lack of property rights, therefore, leads to overexploitation that results in the depletion of resources. This is so called ‘the tragedy of the commons’. The Korea-China Fisheries Agreement is significant because it introduced a new fishery order for the two countries that is compatible with the EEZ system. The agreement, on the one hand, may protect fishery resources from extinction and secure a framework for sustainable exploitation of resources. However, on the other hand, there is the negative impact on Korean fishermen of the new fisheries agreement, especially upon the miers trap-fisheries industry which has fished mainly in East China Sea.
In fisheries, fishing grounds have been appropriated by national authorities. Hence, government or the institutional authorities have regulated the Total Allowable Catch (TAC) among producers, that is the owners of vessels. And the vessel buyback program has been introduced by the government for desirable reduction of fish harvest. Vessel buyback program has been designed to avoid economic losses occurring as a result of over-fishing. However, due to this program, the fisheries community has experienced bankruptcy and unemployment of a number of fishermen. Fisheries management is a social issue because it unavoidably must address the behaviour of resource users, and in many contexts it must also take into account the consequences for fishery-dependent communities. Civil society appears in fisheries management in many ways. And it is at the core of the ‘communitarian’ perspective on fisheries management, that is co-management which emphasizes the roles of communities and other organization of civil society in management.
