In this article the author draws upon his field work in Le Guilvinec, France during a period of crisis in the fishery to explore the creation and reproduction of a Bigouden identity. This identity emerged, replete with cos tume, rituals and festivals, out of an encounter between a metropolitan-driven industrial capitalism and a local, essentially non-capitalist, social formation. Here two aspects of how the local is integrated into and/or articulated with the larger are important: (1) the historical positioning of the Bigoudennie within Brittany, an internal hinterland of France supplying labour and raw resources; (2) the ways in which the emerging neoliberal processes of globalization structures, shapes and hin ders the ability of communities to wield any real control over processes
