Book An Anthropological Study of Marine Fishermen in Kerala

Download or read book An Anthropological Study of Marine Fishermen in Kerala written by B. Bindu Ramachandran and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-13 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthropological studies of marine fishermen have explored immense diversity among fishing societies, and the management strategies of marine resources in the context of globalization and changing technologies deserve the utmost attention from researchers in an uncertain economy. In India, fishing communities belong to various different castes and religions. This book presents an anthropological study of Hindu marine fishermen in two neighboring fishing villages situated in the same coastal belt, but administered by two different state governments (Kerala and Pondicherry). It explores the ways in which state interventions influence the development paradigm of a marginalized society like marine fishermen, and discusses the distribution pattern of production systems and its significance at the household level. The book also considers the gendered forms of economic transformation in fishing due to declining marine resources, and technological and climate change. It also focuses on the role of women fish vendors in market spaces as instituted by their distribution and credit connections and the unique experiences of the development process through anxieties, compromises and survival in an uncertain economy. The book will be of interest to researchers, administrators and NGOs working for the inclusive development of marginalized communities sharing common property resources.

Book Technological Change and the Development of Marine Fishing Industry in India

Download or read book Technological Change and the Development of Marine Fishing Industry in India written by Ramakrishnan Korakandy and published by Daya Books. This book was released on 1994 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fisheries management in the developing world is concerned largely with the problem of creating a commercial or industrial fishery sector. Fisheries development in India was initiated through a programme of planned technological change. The state of Kerala which is still the primary producer and exporter of marine fish from the country has been the focal point of this developmental strategy. Fisheries development in the state has not been studied in much detail in the past. This book born out of an earlier doctoral study is a vast treatise on the subject of technological change and economic development. It gives a blend of the economic theory of technological change and the process of fisheries development in the state of Kerala. The book, starting with a brief introductory chapter, enunciates the global literature on fisheries development, the conceptual framework and methodology of the study, the state of the art of the traditional sector of the primary marine fishing industry of Kerala, the process of technological change in the marine fishing industry of the state, their indicators, effects and characteristics, all in good succession and in great detail. The book in its core argues that the development achieved by the industry was limited and it was restricted by the limited growth strategy followed by the state. A concluding chapter of this book gives an array of findings of the study and offers valuable suggestions to the policy maker. With a post-script, it keeps the reader abreast of the developments in the industry. The book, apart from its theoretical underpinning, is rich with empirical data garnered from various sources. It also offers an excellent bibliography on the subject. Its language is smooth. It should be appealing to students, teachers, scholars and policy makers everywhere. Contents Chapter 1: Introduction; Chapter 2: Economic Theory and Primary Marine Fishing Industry- A Review of Literature; Chapter 3: Conceptual Framework and Methodology; Chapter 4: Primary Marine Fishing Industry- The Traditional Sector; Chapter 5: Technological Change in the Primary Marine Fishing Industry- The Process; Chapter 6: Indicators of Technological Change; Chapter 7: Characteristics of Technological Change; Chapter 8: Summary of Findings, Conclusions and Recommendations.

Book Fish Marketing

Download or read book Fish Marketing written by C. Viswanathan and published by Wisdom House. This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the development of industrial capitalism and structural change in the marketing of fish in the fishery sector of Kerala. The state of Kerala is one of the leading maritime states of Indian Union and is blessed with excellent maritime, inland and estuarine fisheries potential. With the implementation of the Indio-Norwegian Project in 1953, by which the mechanization processes were initiated, the fishery sector in Kerala underwent great change. It introduced a sharp dualism into the fish economy of Kerala and changed the structure of fish marketing reducing the marketing power of the fish producers/sellers. Mechanization helped to increase production and productivity, however, the fishermen are only the peripheral beneficiaries of the mechanization effort. Exploitation of fishermen increased along with the progress of the fishery sector. This study focuses mainly on the internal marketing of marine fish in Kerala. It examines the price spread in three channels of fish marketing. It deals with the price setting at the landing centres and at the wholesale markets. This work critically examines the supply response to price changes for sixteen varieties of fish in Kerala and seeks to evaluate the role of institutional agencies in marine fish marketing.

Book Factoring Social and Cultural Dimensions Into Food and Livelihood Security Issues of Marine Fisheries

Download or read book Factoring Social and Cultural Dimensions Into Food and Livelihood Security Issues of Marine Fisheries written by John Kurien and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the social and cultural aspects of marine fishing communities, as they emerge in the course of the pursuit for food and livelihood, are the subjects of this papers. The focus is on the marine fishery of Kerala State, India and attempts to show how these demensions evolved in the context of very specific resource and ecological determinants. Social and cultural dimensions have been often considered a drag on the transformation of societies into modern entities. However, the numerous failures encountered when development is given an exclusively techno-economic orientation, provide the basis for a new search to give meaning to hitherto neglected socio-cultural norms--Abstract.

Book Ecology  Technology  and Economy

Download or read book Ecology Technology and Economy written by P. R. G. Mathur and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book of its kind dealing with the ecology, technology, and economy of the Mappila, Hindu, and Latin Christian fishermen of Kerala, India and their adaptation of modern technology. The traditional Hindu fishermen have lagged behind in adapting to modern technology, although the Latin Christians and the Mappilas have embraced every opportunity, and, as a result, they have become prosperous. The book highlights the impact of recent restrictions on trawling during monsoon seasons for the restoration of marine life along with other related issues. The author also pays special attention to evaluating the traditional ecological knowledge of the fishermen and the modern technological innovations. The continuity of the time-tested technology is emphasized in the traditional knowledge of fishermen in the understanding of various kinds of winds, currents, waves, and availability of species of fish. Caught between the hazardous nature of fishing as an occupation and modern technological innovations, should or could traditional fishermen give it up as a livelihood? This is the crux of the study. Following an anthropological approach, this is a study of absorbing interest.

Book Fisheries Development and Management in India  1785 1986

Download or read book Fisheries Development and Management in India 1785 1986 written by Nune Subba Rao and published by Northern Book Centre. This book was released on 1989 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fisheries play an important role in the economy of nations bordering the sea and this is especially true in a populous country like India where a large majority continues to live below the poverty line. Sea fishing has been an occupation with the coastal people of India since time immemorial forming an integral part of the maritime heritage. Machanisation has been introduced into the marine fishing with a view to exploit the fisheries potential all along the Indian coastline of 6,500 km by overcoming the deficiencies of the centuries old traditional fishing technology and to augment fish production with a higher fishing effort and also to raise the income levels and living standards of fishermen. The present book, based on the author’s doctoral dissertation, made a bold and pioneering attempt to evaluate the costs and earnings of mechanised and traditional boats for determining their relative operational efficiency and to examine intensively the effects of mechanisation on employment, income levels, consumption pattern and levels of living of fishermen and their social implications. While analysing the merits of the new fishing technology and also the reactions of different groups of fishermen to mechanisation, he spotlights the shortsightedness in the implementation of the programme of mechanisation resulting in a host of negative effects which have implications and also sets forth the valuable lessons which Indian experiences have to offer to the densely populated littoral nations in the Third World. To ensure enduring benefits to the vast majority of marine fishermen, the thesis underscores, among numerous other remedies the need for the provision of an intermediary technology, the need for the institutional support and marketing network and the need for the management of fisheries resources. It also calls for the policies to bring about socio-economic development of the fishing community on par with the rest of the society. All in all, a genuine contribution to knowledge of `grassroots' situations that will have enduring value and that can be useful in both academic and policy-formation circles.
