Summary: | Argentina has a vast maritime littoral region on the South Atlantic Ocean with abundant,
easily available fishing resources. It also has a significantly developed extraction and
industrial processing system, yet commercialisation is hindered by the industry’s strong
dependence on the international market. In the last decades, Argentine fishing has
undergone structural changes that amount to a whole reshaping of the system. These
changes are the result of the correlation of various factors: the establishment of new
unloading areas, the exploitation of an increasing number of species, the improvement of
the fleet, and the development of legislation that promotes and regulates the catching,
processing and marketing of fishing resources. With this framework in mind, the study
focussed on the public fishing policies in Southern Patagonia, the aims and contents of
the international, national and province legislation and fishing agreements, their relation to
the socio-economic evolution of the country and the region in the last decades of the 20th
century, and their territorial and social impact. The emphasis was on the integration of
Law and Geography and on the complementation of historical and economic studies.
