This question will be in the final exam (referencing is not required)
Write a short essay (1 page max if you write on each line where a page of a standard answer book has 38 lines or 2 pages max if you write on every second line) to discuss the management of fisheries in New Zealand from pre-colonial times to after the arrival of European settlers. Make sure that you address the following points:
Explain why, in the absence of mechanisms to prevent it, fisheries are prone to being over-fished.
Explain how fisheries were managed in New Zealand prior to the arrival of European settlers. Connect your answer to Ostrom’s work that discusses the conditions for an effective management for such a resource.
What was the impact of the arrival of Europeans on fisheries and the management of NZ fisheries? (Hint: Discuss how and why the conditions that you identified broke down after the Europeans arrived.)
