중국의 어획량관리제도 도입가능성에 관한 소고

The existing Law of fisheries Management of China was firstly established on October 30th, 1986 and revised in October, 2000. The new Law of Fisheries Management provided a basis for introduction of the TAC (total allowable catch) system into China. Introduction of the TAC system is a natural result of the practise of EEZ (exclusive economic zone). In addition, the inability of the traditional fishery management system and the promising results obtained by conductions of TAC system in some countries with advanced fishery also make the introduction of TAC system a necessity, However, the contradictions between the unrealistic introduction of the fisheries management systems, the small-scale operation, higher expense of the conduction and supervision of the systems, and the insufficiencies of human power, financial fund, and scientific technique of the underdeveloped country resulted in the ineffectiveness of the new systems. So this study is to discuss the background and the possibility of TAC system implementation in china. The results of this study showed that many factors restrict the implementation of TAC system into China at present. It will take a long time to practise the new system. meanwhile, reforming and improving the functions of the existing systems to provide a better environment will play an important role in the introduction of the TAC system into china.
