Abstract

There is a spirited commitment of sustainability among small-scale fishers and fisheries. This commitment is visible through the pattern and process of utilization of environmentally friendly fishery gear and through campaigns by fishers to encourage each other to always use environmentally friendly fishing gear. For many small-scale fishers, their low fishing income is not a problem, as they include in their accounting the value of fishery resources for future generations. This research wants to answer how legal protection is related to small-scale fishers' commitments to sustainability in the local context. With qualitative analysis, disclosed legal protection is not only examined from the perspective of legislation alone, but also considers the economic, political, and social relationships. The case study was conducted in Morodemak Vilage, Bonang Subdistrict, Demak District. The study examines local practices by small-scale fishers in the utilization of fishery resources. The study found that small-scale fishers are not always concerned with income alone, they also value fishery resources for future generations, often by way of practicing sustainable fishing methods. The awareness of sustainability of fisheries was determined by fishers' exclusive use of ecofriendly fishing gear and their campaigns to encourage other small-scale fishers to abandon the use of unfriendly fishing nets.
