Abstract: The main
objective of this paper is to provide a concise overview of the fisheries and
aquaculture industries at European and Italian level. The European Commission
has recently highlighted the necessity to evaluate the performance of these
sectors due to the decline of fish stocks. For this reason, strict rules oblige the Member
States to manage fish stocks safeguarding natural resources and, at the same
time, the productivity of the industry. The present study aims at providing not
only a comprehensive analysis but also at offering remarks and observations
helpful to understand the role of this economic activity in Italy and Europe.
