A comparison of total crab imports and allowable catch in Russian waters from 1990 to 2022 indicates a peak in shadow activities during the mid-2000s, with a cessation of large-scale illegal fishing observed since 2013. A narrative analysis of institutional shifts reveals that the bolstering of internal oversight, heightened accountability for harvesters, and enhanced global cooperation have been pivotal in fostering these positive dynamics. Concerning trends, however, emerged towards the beginning of the current decade, indicating potential instability within the legal framework of the crab industry. Persistent statistical discrepancies in trade with South Korea, diminishing institutional capacities within Russia to combat shadow activities, and heightened media scrutiny of illicit crab harvesting underscore the need for sustained vigilance in addressing both internal and external dimensions of this multifaceted problem.","PeriodicalId":23705,"journal":{"name":"WORLD","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140992210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Home, which contains various references to houses, countries, and states, can no longer be considered a homogenized experience for migrants, as it takes shapes as a result of interaction between the past and present, the local and global, and the diaspora and country of origin. Drawing on diaspora studies and its theorizations of home, this article examines the heterogeneous and pluralistic negotiations of home in Susan Muaddi Darraj’s <i>The Inheritance of Exile</i> and Angela Tehaan Leon’s <i>Swimming Toward the Light</i>, and argues that the conventional understanding of home as a fixed location tied solely to one’s country of origin is challenged. The first generation of Arab migrant women, as depicted in the novels, finds a sense of belonging in the familiar spaces and customs of their native countries, hence viewing them as their true home. In contrast, the second generation views home in a more multifaceted way. They see it not only as a physical space but also as a source of spiritual comfort. The analysis confirms that home can no longer be said to apply simply to a geographic place, site, or even to a certain culture or set of practices as it is interpreted differently and incarnated in multitudinous forms. The diversified meanings of home render it pliable and confirm its controversial and debatable nature, especially for subjects in transit.</p>","PeriodicalId":43537,"journal":{"name":"Fudan Journal of the Humanities and Social Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140927502","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
