Fishers are doing it for themselves? Responsibilisation and the framing of fish habitat rehabilitation and stewardship

Gregory, Kieran Benjamin (2018) Fishers are doing it for themselves? Responsibilisation and the framing of fish habitat rehabilitation and stewardship. Masters by Research thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

The aim of this research is to understand the implications of the current framing of fisheries degradation and rehabilitation responsibilities in stewardship policy. By doing so, in this research the discursive strategies used to attribute blame for fish habitat degradation are identified, as is whether there is a dissonance between to whom blame is attributed and the stakeholder groups which the New South Wales Department of Primary Industries (NSW DPI)—the state government agency with policy responsibility for fisheries management—is advocating take responsibility for remedying the problem.

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
