Ming And Qing Zhejiang Marine Fisheries And Institutional Change

The Ming and Qing dynasty is a period of Chinese and foreignMarine economic development, and is also a period of collision ofChinese and foreign Marine society. Fishermen are pioneers of Chinasprogress towards the ocean. As the foundation of Marine economy, thedevelopment of Marine fishery and coastal social stability areinfluenced each other and interact as both cause and effect. And theform of Zhejiang economic development of Marine fishery is morerepresentative. From the management system that our country takes toMarine fisheries development of Zhejiang province, it not only canmake up for the deficiency of the fishing economy historical data, andwill make us hold more characteristics of Zhejiang ocean fisheryeconomical development. The publicity of Marine fishery resources andcollectivity of production, make the government of any period facemany challenges and opportunities in the management of the Marinefishery.From the perspective of the national management system, Thispaper discusses the relationship between series of Marine fishery systemand marine fishery development adopted by the central and localgovernments of Ming and Qing dynasty on the whole basis of theproduction of Zhejiang marine fishery. It is divided into four chapters,mainly solving three problems:1what content does Zhejiang oceanfishery system contain;2what are the evolution paths and influencingfactors of Zhejiang ocean fishery system;3what is the effect of theimplementation of Zhejiang marine fishery system to the developmentof local marine fishery economy, especially to the effect of fisheryintermediary organizations. The first chapter is about the productionstatus of Zhejiang marine fishery of Ming and Qing dynasties and the following there chapters answer these three above questions.The content of Zhejiang marine fishery system. Through the overallanalysis of marine fishery system from the central to the local of Mingand Qing dynasties, we can find that its content and managementsystem that the government adopted to mainland farmers have incommon, and their own characteristics. According to theimplementation object, Zhejiang marine fishery system can be dividedinto the system of fishermen, fishing boats and fishing area, and eachsystem line and plane can be subdivided.The evolution path and influencing factors of the fishery system.From the cross-sectional analysis of Zhejiang Marine fishery system, wecan see the different implementation object, and from the longitudinalanalysis, according to the time sequence of the introduction of thesystem, we can find the change of Zhejiang Marine fishery system haveobvious stages through the statistical tools. Through the analysis of thechange of Zhejiang Marine fishery system in these five periods, we findthat Marine climate change, Zhejiang coastal economic developmentand the conflict of politics and military have obvious influences onZhejiang Marine fishery system. These factors in the five periods, appearat the same time, or alone alternately, affecting the trend of ZhejiangMarine fishery system.The fishery system and economic development. Generallyspeaking, the development of the system is slower than thedevelopment of economy, but there is evident that the system canpromote the development of economy after its development. Throughthe analysis of trade association of Zhejiang Marine fishery from fishingassociation to benevolent association, from fishing group to Fishery Company, the standards of Marine fishery system play an important rolein every change. Trade association, as the fishery informal organization,develops gradually in the support of national Marine fishery officialsystem. The upgrade of trade association is favorable to thedevelopment of Marine fishery economy. Zhejiang marine fisherysystem affects the fishery production way and scale through tradeassociation.In today's development of Marine economy, the study on thehistory of Chinas ocean becomes very important and urgent. Theresearch of the history of Marine fishery is constrained by materialshortage, which has been the weak point of the study of the oceanhistory. This paper fills the void of the research of ocean history in China.Secondly, this paper studies with the use of Marine biology, institutionaleconomics and management discipline theory from the fisheryproduction, system development, fishery intermediary organizations, inorder to open new vision of the study of China ocean history. In addition,according to the characteristics of the development of Zhejiang marinefishery economy after concluding historical development, this paperhas important reference value to the production and implementationof Marine fishery management system of contemporary government.
