Does the commercial fishing of Antarctic toothfish have a future? A critical assessment from a Ngai Tahu tikanga perspective
This paper critically assesses the long-term sustainability of the Antarctic toothfish fishery from a Ngai Tahu tikanga (customary practices) perspective. The investigation assesses the current toothfish fishery, as determined by the Commission for the Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Mar...
