有大量的文献集中在欧洲和国外近海渔业的治理,不同国家渔业的历史,以及世界各地渔业社区的人类学研究。还有大量文献探讨渔民对渔业治理和管理的态度。然而,很少有研究通过使用定量调查数据来探讨渔民的政治态度。本文利用在英国加入欧盟公投之前进行的一项调查,分析了在长度超过10米的船只上工作的苏格兰船长的样本数据。本文重点介绍苏格兰渔民如何在英国和苏格兰选举中投票,他们如何在苏格兰独立和欧盟公投中投票,他们的政治和社会态度以及他们的人口统计数据。关于欧盟公投,本文发现,渔民,以及打算以压倒性多数投票离开欧盟,这样做的工具的原因,相信这一行动方针将有利于他们和他们的行业。
There is a substantial amount of literature that focuses on the governance of offshore fisheries in Europe and abroad, the history of fishing industries in different countries, and anthropological studies of fishing communities around the world. There is also a large amount of literature that explores the attitudes of fishermen towards fisheries governance and management. However, there is very little research that has explored the political attitudes of fishermen through the use of quantitative survey data. Using a survey carried out just ahead of the referendum on the UK's membership of the EU, this paper analyses data from a sample of Scottish skippers who work on vessels over 10 m in length. The paper focuses on how fishermen in Scotland vote at both UK and Scottish elections, how they voted in the Scottish independence and EU referendums, their political and social attitudes and their demographic breakdown. On the EU referendum, the paper finds that fishermen, as well intending to overwhelmingly voting to leave the EU, did so for instrumental reasons in the belief that this course of action would benefit them and their industry.
