어민후계자의 어업경영실태에 관한 연구 - 청산도의 사례를 중심으로-

Abstract

This research is about management practice of fishermen successors engaging in fishing industry while residing in Cheongsan island. Korea's rapid industrialization and urbanization after 1960s caused labor power of sea villages to break away, and brought aging of manpower of fishing villages, shortage of working force and weakening of productivity of fishery. Fishermen successor system is the policy executed from 1981 in order to curb fishermen's seceding as well as to maintain continuous fishery management and its productivity. In this research, the practice of their managing fishing industry has been analyzed by carrying out survey to 103 of fishermen successors residing in Cheongsan-myun, Wando with questionnaires. The result of this research was shown that the evaluation for the fishermen successors system was relatively positive in sea villages. But, it was pointed that because the size of initial fund that the government supports such a little, and no governmental support was provided after being selected as fishermen successors that there is difficulty in fishing activities. As a result, this system needs to be more expanded, and it seems that it will be desirable to encourage fishermen to settle in sea villages by government's increasing of related budgets and complementing this system's problem.
