The Construction Of Common Wealth Demonstration Zone In The Context Of Liuheng Coastal Exploring The Conversion Of Livelihood Fishermen To Other Industries

The 14th Five-Year Plan and the outline of the Vision 2035 clearly state that more substantial progress should be made in realizing common prosperity for all the people,and emphasize that eradicating poverty,improving people’s livelihood and realizing common prosperity are the essential requirements of socialism.Under the expectations of the Party and the people,Zhejiang has become the first common prosperity construction demonstration zone in China.The provincial government has intensified efforts to improve people’s livelihood,aiming to achieve obvious results in 2025 and submit Zhejiang answers to the common prosperity construction for the Party.Since the reform and opening up in the 1980s,China’s fishery industry has made unquestionable achievements in development,but a series of problems and conflicts have inevitably occurred,among which the most prominent is the conflict between the increasingly declining fishery resources and the ever-increasing fishing intensity in the offshore and coastal areas.Zhoushan Fishery,the largest fishery field in our country,also almost exists in name.Liuheng Fishing area,once the backbone of Zhoushan fishing field productivity,has also suffered a huge impact.At present,the coastal fishery resources of Liuheng Town are exhausted,and the fished varieties are younger and of low quality,which is difficult to form a fishing flood.At the beginning of this century,under the pressure of China,Japan and South Korea on the boundary demarcation of fishery waters in the East and Yellow Seas,the government used to reduce the number of vessels and fishermen to promote the conversion of fishery to production and business,hoping to solve the problem of subsistence fishermen first,but failed to achieve the expected results.At the same time,new problems such as the fairness of "oil supplement",the conflict of interest caused by regulating boats,the object of compensation for the occupation of fishing grounds and the implementation standards come one after another.For example,it frequently occurs that fishermen who quit the production sequence of fishing boats,after enjoying the compensation of "double transfer",buy secondhand fishing boats again or "three noes" new boats to return to fishing.Some fishermen have also fallen into more serious survival problems due to technical or market reasons after switching to production and business.In this paper,literature,field investigation and interview methods were used to investigate the current situation of fishing and fishermen in Liuheng fishing area of Zhoushan City,Zhejiang Province.Based on the questionnaire sent by 207 fishing boat owners from six fishing communities in Liuheng Town in May 2020,this paper sorted out the historical evolution and development relationship of fishermen,fishing villages and fishery "three fisheries" in Liuheng Town,and collected and analyzed the relevant data of the transformation choice of coastal livelihood fishery in Liuheng Town.To explore the future choice and outlet of coastal subsistence fishermen under the background of common prosperity.The results show that:(1)The fishery resources of Liuheng are on the verge of exhaustion,and the fishing space of subsistence fishermen is sharply compressed.The government has taken measures to ensure the overall economic development by buying off fishermen’s fishing boats and making fishermen abandon their boats and go ashore at the expense of the interests of fishermen along Liuheng.These measures that treat the symptoms but not the root cause cause the frequent occurrence of illegal fishing,increase the gap between the rich and the poor of fishermen,increase the difficulty of fishery law enforcement,and the phenomenon of fishermen returning to poverty is serious.(2)The subsistence fishermen in Liuheng are seriously aging and have low education level,so they urgently need the inflow of young labor force.On the one hand,the traditional fishing idea is solidified,the family and personal physical conditions are poor,and the fishermen’s social security system is not perfect,which are the main reasons for fishermen’s reluctance to change production and employment.On the other hand,the income of fishermen is closely related to their age and policy awareness,and the income of fishermen who are younger and good at collecting fishery information is better.(3)Liuheng subsistence fishermen are restricted by themselves,society,government and other factors in the process of production and trade.In the formulation process of relevant fishery benefit policies,fishermen’s participation is low,and it is difficult for fishermen to timely and comprehensively understand relevant policy information due to their own cultural level,and social attention to fishermen is still not enough.Under the background of the construction of common prosperity demonstration zone,the government of Liuheng is making unprecedented efforts to improve people’s livelihood,involving policy support,financial support and other aspects.The construction of Liuheng International Marine Fishing Park will bring a large number of jobs to fishermen,and the introduction of recreational fishery quota system will improve the existing unbalanced fishing system.(4)Six horizontal livelihood fishermen to change production and business suggestions,should also start from the fishermen,resources,policy and other aspects.By strengthening the training and employment guidance of fishermen,we can improve the obsession of fishermen who are not willing to switch to production and employment,promote the restoration of fishery resources and habitat and strengthen Marine protection,and guide fishermen to transform to a healthier business form.
