Planners view underdevelopment as of some kind of lack (lack theory) in resources, character, etc. Real reason may be a process rather than a condition--the centralized economy which draws capital, people and resources out of the region. The fishery as the employment of last resort; licensing and regulation is intended to create a professional fishery. Casual, part-time workers are thus marginalized.
