摘要：Community based fishery management (CBFM) formulates various
formal and informal institutions (developing community organizations, decisionmaking,
and traditional fishing rules) for sustainable fishery management in
Bangladesh. Although these rules are intended to managing fisheries for a long-term
use, constraints to enforcing these rules or absence of mechanisms to address these
constraints hamper fishers’ resilience. This paper aims to examine such constraints to
fishers’ resilience in Langalkata Ozur Beel (local name of the fishery), Sunamganj,
Bangladesh. Based on key informant interviews, this paper finds that non-participatory
community based organizations and weak coordination among stakeholders
appear to be enduring constraints to developing fishers’ resilience. Fishers’ resilience
is largely constrained by power relations that mostly exclude fishers from the fishery
management. Conflict between fishery users or with the community and the absence
of interactive learning are also important constraints to fishers’ resilience. It seems
that rules-in-practice fail to develop fishers’ capacity to cope and adapt to these constraints
and continue their activities to maintaining the fishery.
