  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Globalization and the dynamics of international fish trade Author: Emerson, William, Lem, Audun Although the share of total fish supply which is traded internationally is fairly stable, the patterns of trade flows are in constant change. China and Viet Nam are increasingly emerging as processors and suppliers of value-added products to world markets, but also within the world’s various regions new players are emerging and markets developing. On the supply side, the aquaculture sector is becoming a major factor in product innovation and price determination with it share of total supply for human consumption quickly approaching 50%. In this paper, the authors presents an overview of world supply and trade flows with a particular emphasis on the impact of globalisation on developing country producers and exporters. Finally, a reference is made to the multilateral and bilateral trade system within which the fisheries sector is operating.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Poland - a Study of the Development of New Trade Patterns in an Economy in Transition: A case study of Poland’s seafood sector Author: Lem, Audun Year: 2001 This work has been facilitated through the very cooperative spirit encountered on numerous visits in Poland among private sector operators and public sector representatives. In particular, Professor Polanski, Professor Dutkiewicz and Dr. Kuzebski of the Sea Fisheries Institute have been of great assistance. Representatives of the Polish Government and the Fisheries Administration have also been most helpful in volunteering information and background material. I also thank my colleagues at the FAO, Zbigniew Karnicki, Grimur Valdimarsson, Izzat Feidi and Erhard Ruckes for valuable support. Special thanks to Jochen Nierentz of EASTFISH and Alberto Ramírez of Fundación Chile whose fact-finding mission to Central and Eastern Europe gave the impetus for this paper.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: A Value-Chain Analysis of International Fish Trade and Food Security with an Impact Assessment of the Small-Scale Sector Author: Child, Anna, Bjorndal, Trond, Lem, Audun The purpose of this article and presentation is to present an overview of the value-chain analysis project on international fish trade and food security with an impact assessment of the small-scale sector. Outlining the project’s importance, approach, results and conclusions, the summary article serves as an initial background document to portray an overall picture of the work conducted. It has been based on numerous country reports, as well as the background and price synthesis reports. Further reading with more specific details can be found on the project’s website (www.fao.org/valuechaininsmallscalefisheries) where all of the country reports, presentations and additional documents that were completed as part of the analysis have been posted. The article is organised as follows. The first section presents the rationale for why this study was undertaken, and includes sub-sections on the importance of the small-scale sector to livelihoods, fish’s direct contribution to food security, the importance of trade to food security and conclusions on the importance of the study. The second section then focuses on the value-chain concept and how it differs from the more traditional supply-chain approach, with examples of value-chains in fisheries and aquaculture presented. The fourth section represents the conclusions from the project, with general themes found between case studies discussed and technical, organisational and policy recommendations presented. The final section concludes the article and outlines areas for further research and analysis.
