Commentary: The Saga of the Management of Fisheries in the Adriatic Sea: History, Flaws, Difficulties, and Successes toward the Application of the Common Fisheries Policy in the Mediterranean

摘要

The article presents an overview of the history, processes and key players involved in fisheries management in the Adriatic Sea using two case studies; the fishery for sardine (Sardina pilchardus L.) and anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus L.) and the fishery for Nephrops norvegicus L. (Carpi et al., 2017). Based on their overview, the authors argue inter alia, that to align Mediterranean management with the EU CFP and achieve MSY targets, the lack of coordination and definition of roles between key players need to be resolved. In this regard, we note several factual errors and inaccuracies.
