After the United Kingdom and European Union finally signed the Trade and Cooperation Agreement on December 31, 2020, they entered into a new fisheries relationship. This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the complex social, economic, legal, and policy issues surrounding fisheries in a post-Brexit world. It is of interest to stakeholders and scholars alike.

The book begins by examining fisheries, Brexit, the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA), and its implications for the Fishing Industry in the UK and the EU. It assesses the new fishing relationship between the UK and the EU, which is expected to continue to develop over the next decade. The book adopts a cross-cutting economic, legal, and policy approach to analyze the social and economic impacts of Brexit on the UK and EU fishing industries. It critically examines the provisions relevant to fisheries in the TCA, reflects on the bilateral fishing negotiations between the EU, UK, and Norway, and provides inferences about the potential new and special relationship in fisheries.

The book then focuses on the 2020 Fisheries Act and explores internal divergences in the nations of the UK due to devolution. It takes an international approach, examining cooperation in fisheries enforcement, international and regional obligations in marine conservation, and the new horizons for the UK in international fisheries organizations and arrangements after it ceases to be a member of the EU. The work offers an overview of expert opinion on fisheries post-Brexit, highlighting lessons learned and future developments for fisheries in a post-Brexit world.

In conclusion, this book provides a valuable contribution to the literature on fisheries in a post-Brexit world. It offers a comprehensive analysis of the complex social, economic, legal, and policy issues surrounding fisheries, and provides insights into the new fisheries relationship between the UK and the EU. The book will be of interest to stakeholders, scholars, and policymakers alike.
