Summary

This Special Issue contains 12 papers; in general, it covers the issues of sustainable fisheries governance, dispute settlement, IUU fishing, BBNJ Agreement, and high-seas fishing. In particular, some regional practices are also provided, including the EU's Common Fishery Policy, and case studies in the North Sea, Atlantic Ocean and Indian Ocean, in order to develop seafood-exporting countries. Interestingly, Chinese practice concerning the sustainable development of marine fisheries, China's fishery legal system, and the marine fishery economy are also evaluated. Special attention has been put on Chinese practice, including the sustainable development of Chinese marine fisheries, and methods to solve the practical problems are also explored. It is also suggested to increase the coordination between the marine environment quality and marine fishery economy quality by upgrading the marine fishery industry, modernising marine fisheries, linking the environmental governance of marine and land areas, and strengthening the ecological construction of the marine environment. Above all, this Special Issue contains an abundance of little-known factual material, refreshing arguments and viewpoints that will, in turn, trigger wider scholarship discussion. This volume is undoubtedly helpful to scholars in their research on international and national fishery governance, in particular, in the context of global practice.
