The effect of globalization of capture fisheries on fisheries management regulations in Indonesia

Abstract

Fishery management by the state is essentially the implementation of the state's right to control natural resources. The state gives the authority to regulate and carry out its designation, including in the fisheries sector. With the development of globalization, the management of these fish resources also needs to pay attention to the principles of International Law. If the sustainability of fish resources in one country is disturbed, it will affect the condition of global fisheries and cause fish stocks in other countries to be disturbed. This article uses the normative method. As a result, there are at least three obligations of the member countries of world fisheries organizations, which carry out the regulations related to harvesting, put an end to overfishing, and restore stocks to levels of maximum sustainable yields (MSY). In fisheries management regulations in Indonesia, the manifestation of this obligation is establishing a map of fishery management areas, prohibiting fishing using particular fishing gear, setting estimates of fishery potential and the number of allowable catches, including conservation.
