    The papers contained in this supplement cover theoretical aspects of fisheries management and its practice in a general manner. Two aspects of fisheries management are reviewed from the perspective of the market for fish and from the fishermen's view. The majority of the papers discuss specific regulatory techniques such as fixed fishing gear, selectivity of fishing gears including mesh size regulation, controls over numbers of fishing vessels and the effects of various financial measures. Sever al of the papers examine approaches to fisheries regulation that attempt to overcome the common property aspect of fisheries resources. The last paper re-examines the basic equilibrium theory that is applied to most fisheries.
