Challenges and opportunities for integrating aquaculture with commercial fishing in Maine
Aquaculture governance: Five engagement arenas for sustainability transformation
A quantitative assessment of spatial patterns of socio-demographic change in coastal Maine: One process or many
Effects of increases in fishery resource abundance on conservation compliance
Seeking sustainability: Employing Ostrom's Sesf to explore spatial fit in Maine’s sea urchin fishery
Achieving resource sustainability in complex social-ecological systems requires employing place-based management mechanisms congruent with the underlying temporal, spatial, and functional dynamics of the system in question. However, matching management to system dynamics can prove extremely challenging, as has been illustrated in Maine’s sea urchin fishery where fishery managers have struggled to resolve management spatial scale mismatch for over…
Engagement in a Public Forum: Knowledge, Action, and Cosmopolitanism
Facing challenges to the civic purpose of higher education, some scholars and administrators turn to the rhetoric of engagement. Simultaneously, the political philosophy of cosmopolitanism has gained intellectual favor, advocating openness to the lived experiences of distant others. We articulate linkages between these two discourses in an extended case study, finding that a cosmopolitan ethos of engagement in a rural context can improve (1) unde…
Turning Contention into Collaboration: Engaging Power, Trust, and Learning in Collaborative Networks
Given the complexity and multiplicity of goals in natural resource governance, it is not surprising that policy debates are often characterized by contention and competition. Yet at times adversaries join together to collaborate to find creative solutions not easily achieved in polarizing forums. We employed qualitative interviews and a quantitative network analysis to investigate a collaborative network that formed to develop a resolution to a c…
Vulnerability of fishing communities undergoing gentrification
Strengthening the role of universities in addressing sustainability challenges: The Mitchell Center for Sustainability Solutions as an institutional experiment

Qualitative Indicators of Social Resilience in Small-Scale Fishing Communities: An Emphasis on Perceptions and Practice
This paper reports on ethnographic research aimed at understanding what resilience means to those living within fishery-dependent communities. We draw on semi-structured and oral history interviews, focus groups, and household and business interviews in four Maine fishing communities to examine the reflections of fishermen and other community members on the past, present, and future of their communities, including the threats they face and how th…

The cost of useful knowledge and collective action in three fisheries

Social-Ecological Scale Mismatches and the Collapse of the Sea Urchin Fishery in Maine, USA

Cumulative effects, creeping enclosure, and the marine commons of New Jersey
In response to declining fish stocks and increased societal concern, the marine ‘commons’ of New Jersey is no longer freely available to commercial and recreational fisheries. We discuss the concept of ‘creeping’ enclosure in relation to New Jersey’s marine fisheries and suggest that reduced access can be a cumulative process and function of multiple events and processes and need not be the result of a single regulatory moment. We begin with a sh…
Fishermen, Scientists, and Boundary Spanners: Cooperative Research in the U.S. Illex Squid Fishery
This article presents a cooperative fisheries research effort aimed to improve the science and management of the U.S. Illex squid fishery. This collaboration between government scientists, the squid industry, and a consultant scientist produced new biological information about squid and improved the assessment of this species. This case illustrates the challenges and possibilities of involving nonscientific citizens in scientific research for pol…

Cooperative research and knowledge flow in the marine commons
Integration of fishers’ knowledge into scientific-based fisheries management is difficult due to a history of distrust between fishers and scientists and institutional constraints that limit management to only the best scientific information available. A recent response to the Northeast U.S. fisheries crisis has been to include fishers in scientific research. Cooperative research, where fishers and scientists collaborate to produce knowledge for …
