We surveyed representatives of these POs with the aim to understand the principles and processes that have evolved for determining allocation of sole quota among their members. Survey results show that the move away from derby fishing and towards the setting of individual catch allocations, initiated in the years 2000, has continued, along with the development of strategies at different levels to reconcile members’ demand for catch allocations with quota constraints. While one might have expected these individual allocations to reflect the track records of fishing vessels, we find that POs have developed alternative allocation rules to satisfy the needs of their members. POs thus play a key role in the definition of fishing possibilities in this and most of the TAC-managed fisheries in which French fleets operate. In so doing, POs bear the brunt of the transaction costs associated with quota allocation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48427,"journal":{"name":"Marine Policy","volume":"179 ","pages":"Article 106764"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144099237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the extent to which their inclusion affects the degree to which citizens find GGIs more legitimate has not been systematically investigated, nor have the conditions under which citizens might do so. In this contribution, we theoretically argue that such inclusion effectively enhances the social legitimacy of GGIs, but only to the extent that citizens expect nonstate actors to provide relevant governance contributions. We find strong empirical evidence for this argument in two large-N conjoint experiments fielded in Brazil, Germany, South Africa, and the United States. First, our results suggest that citizens, on average, ascribe more legitimacy to GGIs if learning that nonstate actors have a say in important decisions. Second, the strength of this effect depends on the degree to which citizens expect nonstate actors to provide expertise, representation, public interest orientation, transparency, or operational capacity. Third, expected governance contributions remarkably vary among different types of nonstate actors in kind and degree. In line with our overall argument, findings suggest that nonstate actor participation plays a more complex and significant role in the social legitimation of global governance than previously understood.","PeriodicalId":48313,"journal":{"name":"International Studies Quarterly","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144113623","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The urgency of the pandemic required rapid government responses, making it difficult to fully consider the equity implications of the policies implemented.

Based on the case of the Nova Scotian lobster fishery and COVID-19, this short communication presents an equity-oriented policy analysis of the economic vulnerability of Nova Scotian lobster fishers to acute shocks. We analyze potential policy options the Government of Nova Scotia could have implemented during the pandemic to mitigate these vulnerabilities. We find trade-offs between the effectiveness and equity of policy options. Additionally, we find that the policy options fare differently against different equity dimensions, suggesting the need for a multi-dimensional approach to assessing equity. Most importantly, we demonstrate how equity can be positioned as a central criterion in policy analysis, supporting the development of resilient fisheries that are better able to withstand acute shocks.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48427,"journal":{"name":"Marine Policy","volume":"180 ","pages":"Article 106748"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144099404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper contributes to these efforts by exploring how the notion of the shadow state in CBC planning undermines the state's capacity to enforce regulations for community land reform in historical resource frontiers. This paper focuses on the CBC planning process of the Northern Rangeland Trust (NRT) in northern Kenya's wildlife frontier to illustrate the political authority of the shadow state in planning CBC interventions through community conservancies, which have led to the territorialization and commodification of communal natural resources. It analyzes the social foundations and practices of the NRT Shadow State, its informal accommodations with local intermediaries, its violent territorialization and monopolization of benefits, and how these ultimately hinder the state's ability to implement community land reforms. The paper argues that a nearly exclusive shadow state strategy of mobilizing resources from donors and global conservation networks and reorganizing institutional frameworks for the governance of natural resources are the endemic features that enable the NRT to plan and expand community conservancies in communal rangelands in Kenya's northern wildlife frontier. This process fosters informal conservation territories and governance configurations that weaken communal resource management and promote exclusionary practices on the ground. The paper concludes by reflecting on the broader implications of shadow state power for community land reforms, arguing that this authority challenges regulatory agencies, limiting their ability to provide adequate oversight and enforcement of regulations for community land reforms in resource frontiers.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 103351"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144099471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis finds that even modest annual CCTs per child can significantly reduce child labor, especially when combined with the elimination of indirect schooling costs. Enhancing adult wages further diminishes household reliance on child labor, although this requires broader structural reforms. Corporate social responsibility remains essential; however, voluntary ethical sourcing initiatives have largely failed to address the issue.
