Abstract
The world's oceans are now attracting the serious attention of conservationists. Paradoxically, as the value of marine biological diversity is recognized, the ecosystems that harbor this diversity are fast becoming degraded. New thinking about how to conserve coastal areas has resulted in protected-area models that incorporate principles of landscape ecology, adaptive and ecosystem management, and zoning in protected-area plans.

It is suggested that remarkable consistency in the history of resource exploitation is due to the following common features: wealth or the prospect of wealth generates political and social power that is used to promote unlimited exploitation of resources.

The results of the study indicated that both government controls and informal, community-level controls can lead to successful resource-management outcomes, and challenge the ‘conventional wisdom’ that commonly-owned resources are destined to be overexploited.
