3. Study case
Bearing in mind that the fundamental objective of the Common
Fisheries Policy is to adapt fleet capacity to existing marine resources
and to do so, among other measures, it establishes a
management system based on transferable rights, the study hasbeen set out to evaluate fishermen's preferences with regard to
new regulatory possibilities, either by means of a system of quotas
or based on fishing effort. The different characteristics of these
property rights are taken into account, including both the duration
of the fishing rights (annual or multiannual) as well as the possibility
of purchase and sale (transferability) among fishermen or
producer organisations. To do so, fishermen were asked to choose
between a system of individual rights based on quotas and a system
based on fishing effort (fishermen were randomly chosen from the
Spanish fishing fleet census). They were then asked to list their
preferences for both systems according to the possible characteristics
of individual rights, such as their duration and transferability
among fishermen. The responses were stratified using a four point
Likert scale1: level 0 indicates that preferences are strongly
unfavourable; level 1, quite unfavourable; level 2, quite favourable;
and level 3, strongly favourable.
