| Abstract | This PhD thesis provides a detailed empirical description and analysis of the Anlo-Ewe beach seine fishery in Ghana. The Anlo-Ewe fishermen operate in a context of declining catches affecting their livelihoods. The study shows how the Anlo-Ewe beach seine fishermen actively negotiate livelihood space in a context of multiple governance structures - including state and non-state authorities and agencies - and migration. - Marloes Kraan studied cultural anthropology at the Free University, Amsterdam, followed by a PhD at the Amsterdam Institute for Metropolitan and International Development Studies (AMIDSt) of the University of Amsterdam. |
