Abstract
Japan retains its position as one of the world's major distant water fishing nations. This article analyzes Japan's distant water Tuna Fisheries, which are currently facing significant external and internal constraints on operation of their vessels. It examines multipronged strategies that the industry and the government have adopted to ensure survival of Japan's tuna operations—the last important distant water fishery that remains for Japan's fishing industry.
