We focus on 'pooling systems' among various Japanese traditional fisheries resource management systems. Our main concern is what factors affect the establishment of the systems. Empirical result, which uses the data collected in more than 50 fisheries cooperatives, indicates that some factors such as the number of the members, the size of the fishing area significantly affect the establishment of the pooling systems.
