在海洋資源不斷枯竭的此時、保育意識抬頭，全球鮪魚業不得不進行一波波的改革與異動，台灣若是不趁早了解現今鮪魚業的大方向觀點，還一味停留在過去捕魚自由及公海自由的老舊觀念，那台灣的鮪魚業將面臨被大環境給淘汰的命運。應提早找出方針，才不會再一次面對類似國際漁業組織對我國採取的制裁措施，提出對台灣現今鮪魚業困境並做出分析。討論出台灣鮪魚業的未來展望。 近年來遠洋漁業、鮪魚保育和永續經營，這三者在許多報導和研究者的眼中一直有密不可分的關係，在保育團體認知下，鮪魚保育和永續經營是畫上等號但這兩者間和遠洋漁業業者卻是相互利害關係，保育團體認為鮪魚之所面臨滅絕的原因乃是因為遠洋漁業的濫捕所造成，而為了達成永續經營則必須對於遠洋漁業業者進行一連串的管制措施和政策。 但事實是否真是如此，且對於遠洋漁業業者而言，許多的政策措施所代表的不單僅僅是單純為了保育進行沿革，更多的是對於國家主權的認知和全球化經濟的角力戰，站在一個遠洋漁業業者的身分且利用身為保育研究者角度，想在此篇論文找出一個平衡點，達成雙贏的局面。 With the continuous depletion of marine resources and the rise of environmental consciousness, the global thornback industry has to make reforms and changes over and over again. Taiwan government has to understand what the view is on general direction as early as possible. If Taiwan government is still stuck with the old concept of the freedom of fishing and of the high sea in the past, the thornback industry in Taiwan will face the fate of being eliminated from the circumstance. We should early find out the guiding policies to avoid being punished by the international fisheries organizations again. Also, we've to analyze the plight and discuss the future prospects of Taiwan thornback fishing industry. For many reports and the researchers, it has been a close relationship among the deep sea fisheries, the thornback conservation and the business continuity recently. Under the knowledge of conservation groups, the thornback conservation is equal to the business continuity. But, it is a gains and losses relationship to the deep sea fisheries. The conservation groups think that over fishing caused the tuna extinction. In order to achieve the business continuity, we've to conduct a series of control measures and policies to the deep sea fisheries. However, is that the fact ? For the deep sea fisheries, lots of policies and measures are not only for the continuity of conservation but also for more knowledge of national sovereignty and global economy. As a deep sea fisheries industry and a researcher of conservation, we would like to find out a balance in this paper so to achieve a win-win situation.
