Introduction to the Special Feature on rebuilding fisheries and threatened communities
In this introductory essay to the Special Feature on rebuilding fisheries and threatened communities, we review the contributions of the researchers whose work is contained in this Special Feature. The essays are reviewed using the lens of the three questions that were posed by the Special Feature editors: Why is rebuilding so challenging? What is the relationship between fishery collapse/degradation and short-and long-term issues for food securi…

A Short History of the Namibian Hake Fishery-a Social-Ecological Analysis
As a legacy of Namibia's colonial past, the country inherited severely depleted fish resources at the time of independence. Today, Namibia's fisheries are almost exclusively industrial. The hake fishery is the country's most important fishery, which was restructured from a pre-independence foreign fishery into one that is characterized by locally based, vertically integrated fishing and processing companies. It is widely believed that Namibia has…
Social–ecological dynamism, knowledge, and sustainable coastal marine fisheries
The challenge of adapting marine social–ecological systems to the additional stress of climate change
Restructuring and Health in Canadian Coastal Communities
Informal Rural Economies in History
ECONOMIC life, as we understand it, began with tribal and peasant societal ex change practices, which embodied the fundamental logic that what one group of people had in surplus could be traded for something else which was scarce or non-existent among them but which another group had in surplus. As society grew more complex and highly organized, formal economic structures, sanctioned and sometimes developed by the state, became increasingly impor…
After the Moratorium
Excessive Expectations
Merchant Credit and Labour Strategies in Historical Perspective
From Outpost to Outport
Using the extensive papers of the firm Charles Robin and Company of Jersey and Paspebiac, and the records of the Jersey mercantile establishment, Rosemary Ommer presents a detailed case study of commodity trade, uncovering the development, function, and strengths and weaknesses of all aspects of the fishery. Her analysis clearly reveals a functional three-point trading system: production in Gaspé, management in Jersey, and markets in the Mediterr…

Primitive accumulation and the Scottish clann in the Old World and the New
Data, Concept and the Translation to Graphics
This paper deals with the creation of the Shipping Plate for Volume II of the Historical Atlas of Canada. It is essentially an account of an exercise in communication between two very different kinds of specialists - an historian and a cartographer. The raw data for the Plate was a massive computer file which provided a real challenge to both sets of expertise in terms of condensing information, conceptualising it and then transferring it to grap…

The Misery of Our Poor
CORES AND PERIPHERIES, metropoles and hinterlands, development and underdevelopment, and dependency are related themes which have become increasingly prominent in the socio-economic literature of the last decade or so. These concepts arise out of a variety of disciplines, ideologies, and schools and amount at present to an inchoate collection of disparate ideas which cries out for overview, some way of welding a potentially valuable series of app…
The Strait of Belle Isle
Timber Colony. A Historical Geography of Early Nineteenth Century New Brunswick
Volumes Not Values
This is the third volume of papers from the annual workshops of the Atlantic Canada Shipping Project. The first dealt with shipbuilding and the composition of merchant fleets in the North Atlantic in the nineteenth century. The second focussed on the Atlantic Provinces of Canada and whether the region's general economic performance and the rise and fall of its shipping industry could be linked to the changing perceptions and capacities of its ent…
