Abstract
This paper focuses upon the informal and institutional governance structures which are
embedded within local production systems in Norwegian fisheries. Important issues concern
the regional distribution of fish catches which results from the tendency in some regional
production systems to use large fishing vessels and the negative consequences for peripheral
regions and inshore fisheries. The influence of powerful central production systems is
considered in terms of territorial dominance over fishing grounds.
