There has been significant interest in addressing fisheries issues, including the transformation of small-scale fisheries to become resilient. Often, this perspective is driven by considerations of market access and how the market will improve the management of the fishery through consumer demand. Unfortunately, for most smallscale fisheries, of which around 95% of the world's fishers belong and are largely focused in developing countries, this market-based view leads to an unrealistic and unsensitive perspective as to how small-scale fisheries can maintain or become resilient. Due to the wicked nature of fisheries, attempts to develop policy instruments that have not worked out quite well for industrial fisheries either, have left small-scale fisheries to fend for themselves. The research question is how do small scale-fishing communities respond to declining stocks and increasingly stringent sustainability requirements? Sub-questions look at policy learning within the subsystem; the role the non-public sector has played in the sustainability of the fishery; and how the choice of gear, the most significant variable in the fishery, has changed since the decline.The case studies presented in this dissertation focus on the Indonesian blue swimming crab (BSC) fishery. This fishery is the third largest in value and employs an estimated 90,000 fishers and 185,000 pickers that supply global markets. The fishery fills the role of much more than a harvester of resources, it is how the community identifies itself. It is identity, economics, tradition, and culture that are threatened by the lack of sustainability in the fishery. Despite the economic contributions and the number of people involved, the fishery is completely open access. The fisheries agency has chosen not to engage in any form of management despite the value and the numbers employed. The communities have been left to fend for themselves.To understand how these communities were responding to the 95% decline in catch since the mid-1990s, I developed a two-step, mixed methods process that took a large N approach to collecting data on knowledge, innovation, and institutions. The anonymous survey was completed by 478 men and women in four Indonesian blue swimming crab- focused fishing villages. This was followed by semi-structured interviews with those recommended by their peers. Ultimately, the idea of "brotherhood" and "talk, not act" are themes that permeate the research but also are the core values that influence decisions to not strongly react against activities that harm everyone's livelihoods. Innovation happens but proof of concept and financial support to change is needed. Knowledge does flow in but there is a need for a structure to facilitate the sharing. Lastly, recognition for those communities moving toward sustainability are with the regency (county) government and, therefore, any solution should use that scale. As a contribution to the literature and to the practicable, applied management of smallscale fishing communities, I model an innovative, all-gear, and all-users, zoning-based approach for the regency/county level for fishers and fishing communities to collaborate on setting appropriately scaled fishing goals and targets without the overt need for setting exclusionary property rights.
