Interactive Governance

is chapter sets the stage for the book about small-scale fisheries governance and governability, which draws lessons and reflections from 34 case studies about small-scale fisheries in 34 countries around the world, including north and south, east and west. The diversity, complexity, dynamics, and scale of small-scale fisheries and their governance are described. Characteristics of small-scale fisheries and their wicked problems call for a shift from management to governance, under whatever governing mode that aligns best with the particu- larity of the system that is being governed, and in corresponding with the govern- ing system capacity (instrumental) and quality (normative). The need for and contribution of research on governance, particularly from social and transdisci- plinary sciences are underscored, given the human presence and interactions that dominate small-scale fisheries. Interactive governance theory and the govern- ability concept and assessment framework underpinning this investigation are perspectives that emphasize the systemic nature of small-scale fisheries, calling thus for a holistic and integrative analysis that transcends sectoral approaches often employed in management discourse and practice.
