5. An international comparison of the Fishermen's
preferences
Once Spanish fishermen's preferences for fishing rights have
been estimated, we will carry out a comparison of the results with
the empirical evidence, European and international, available at the
present time. In socio-economic literature, there are references
which make it possible to carry out such a comparison. However, a
few distinctions should be made in this respect. In most studies, a
qualitative valuation is made of market instruments and other
regulatory measures, also including different factors that might
influence the success of such measures, they being bio-ecological,
socioeconomic and with regard to fisheries governance. In order
to carry out the comparison, we will only identify fishermen's
preferences of fisheries management measures. Since the methods
used in the different case studies are different and institutional and
regulatory systems are not exactly the same, the results must be
taken with extreme caution. It should also be borne in mind that in
some cases the valuation has been made after the implementation
of market instruments, making it therefore an ex-post evaluation.
Furthermore, given the heterogeneity of the types of gear that exist
in the countries analysed, and bearing in mind the results obtained
for the case of Spain, we have chosen to simplify them into two
segments and differentiate, therefore, between artisanal and industrial
(note that in some countries where the size of vessels is
smaller, for example in developing countries, we have chosen to use
“coastal” rather than “industrial”). Table 6 sums up the main results
compiled from wide-ranging research and Table 7 shows the economic
performance for most of those fleet segments (however, not
having been able to obtaining information for the same year, any
comparison should be taken with caution).
