Alcohol use and sexual risk behaviors in the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo
Results emphasize the need to address alcohol use in the FARDC and integrate alcohol abuse education into HIV prevention programs among male service members. Alcohol abuse prevention efforts should target men who are 30-49 years of age, unmarried, and ranked as a NCO. Messages and interventions to reduce alcohol misuse in relation to risky sexual behaviors are needed

What is “Ecological” in Local Ecological Knowledge? Lessons from Canada and Vietnam
Case studies from Canada and Vietnam demonstrate both the importance and content limitations of local ecological knowledge (LEK) acquired during collaborative research between local fishers and scientists. The Canadian research disproved fishers' contentions that white hake (Urophycis tenuis) was the main predator on juvenile lobster (Homarus americanus). In the Vietnam case, the LEK of 400 fishers was used to test a hypothesis about monsoon seas…
Returning to Netukulimk
Recent global initiatives such as the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples have brought the issues facing and needs of indigenous peoples to the forefront of international attention. While underscoring respect for traditional practices, these initiatives have yet to appreciate fully the extent to which indigenous peoples' practices engage ways of being, living and believing that encompass a holistic understanding of the …
Constructing confidence
Key attributes of the social research contributions on indigenous ecological knowledge (IEK), local ecological knowledge (LEK), and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) are analyzed using the most frequently cited literature generated by the “ISI Web of Knowledge” and “Google Scholar” search engines. They are further exemplified by an examination of two contrasting approaches to the analysis of IEK/LEK/TEK. The results show that IEK/LEK/TEK is …

Lost at Sea
Millions of metric tons of plastic are produced annually. Countless large items of plastic debris are accumulating in marine habitats worldwide and may persist for centuries ([ 1 ][1]–[ 4 ][2]). Here we show that microscopic plastic fragments and fibers ([Fig. 1A][3]) are also widespread in the
Property as a Social Relation
This paper describes the informal system of property rights that characterizes the commercially valuable lobster fishery pursued in St. George’s Bay, northeastern Nova Scotia, by the descendents of Scottish Gaels. In this setting, discrete family-defined but individually “owned” lobster fishing berths coexist cheek by jowl with a “common ground” fishery. The principles governing the berth system derive, in part, from a land-based system of usufru…

Social research and alternative approaches to fisheries management
Common in custom, uncommon in advantage
Fisheries social research has attracted increasing attention in recent debates concerning alternative approaches in the design of fisheries management systems. This essay examines case study and fisheries social research literature with a view to highlighting conceptual-analytical strengths, shortcomings, and lessons with respect to management concerns. It is argued that effective and sustainable management regimes require that central considerat…
Controlling Common Prosperity
Self and Sacrifice
Small boat fishers have often been characterized as uncooperative individualists resistant to forming and sustaining representative organizations. This essay argues that small boat fishers are a heterogeneous group expressive of divergent and often conflicting ideologies and behaviors. We contend that the character and play of these differences impact directly upon the dynamics in and outcomes for representative organizations such as producer coo…
The Veiled Crew
This paper explores the fit between the reported and the desired contributions of wives to household small boat fishing enterprises. The research employed a double comparative design: 1) a regional comparison of fisheries-dependent households in North Norway and Nova Scotia, and 2) a dyadic gender comparison of the viewpoints of wives and husbands. Our findings reveal several patterns. First, wives in both regions participate substantially in the…

Dans cette communication nous établirons que les seuils culturellement établis distinguant le pur de l'impur constituent une dimension centrale de la construction d'identités et leur maintien. De plus, dans des cultures caractérisées par des formes structurées d'inégalité, ceux qui occupent des positions avantageuses sont positionnés de manière à réaffirmer leur situation au moyen de la gestion de violations d'identité, c'est‐à‐dire de souillure.…

Recruitment to small boat fishing and public policy in the Atlantic Canadian fisheries
Dans la région atlantique du Canada, les revenus de la plupart de ceux qui se consacrent à la pêche commerciale sont insuffisants à cause des frais de ménage et de participation. Néanmoins, des dizaines de milliers de personnes continuent à faire de la pêche leur occupation première. Dans cet essai, nous examinons une étude de cas et des données d'enquêtes afin de déterminer les raisons pour lesquelles une carrière dans la pêche continue à attire…
