cloth, dust jacket, xiii, 264 p. : illustrated.,maps, name on front free endpaper blanked out with marker, some underlining first chapter, CONTENTS; Spatial strategies and territoriality -- The island game : informal rules and the factors producing them -- The genesis of state laws for the lobster industry -- Co-management in the Maine lobster industry -- Science and local knowledge -- Dealing with the feds -- The politics of science. A case study of the Maine lobster-fishing industry. James M. Acheson argues that resource degradation is not inevitable, and that Maine's record high catches are due, in part, to the institutions generated by the lobster-fishing industry to control fishing practices.
