dc.descriptionCoastal fishery resources in South Sulawesi, Indonesia, are important because they not only provide food and income for coastal communities, but also generate revenue at the local, regional, and national levels. Attempts by the national government to impose centralized fishery regulations and promote fisheries production have caused depletion of habitat, depletion of fish stocks, and an increase in conflicts among small-scale fishers. Thus, interest has emerged in the participation of local fishing communities in fishery resources management, as an alternative to centralized fisheries management.en_US
dc.descriptionA patron-client relationship in small-scale fisheries, called ponggawa-sawi, has been institutionalized by certain ethnic groups in South Sulawesi. This research has used participatory observation and semi-structured interview and is intended to evaluate and understand this patronage system in the Buginese, Makassarese, and Mandarese's fishing communities. The research results show that external and internal pressures have forced changes in the shape of this institution. Emerging changes include a shift from authoritative decision-making of the ponggawa (patron) to a more cooperative mode. Other emerging changes include a shift from decisions about the fishing locality, relaxing both the limitation of sawi (client) involvement to a single ethnic group and the patron's total control of all activities in the patronage system. The evolution of ponggawa-sawi in the Mandarese to a high degree of cooperation and investment by sawis and outsiders and the willingness of ponggawas in Buginese and Makassarese to consider alternatives for local fishery management suggest there may be willingness for further change to accommodate new arrangements for local fisheries management.en_US
dc.descriptionThe research results are used for further analysis of this traditional institution from socio-anthropological, economic, political, legal, and ecological perspectives with respect to local fisheries management and leading to a model of integration of the ponggawa-sawi institution into fisheries co-management. In developing a model for cooperative fisheries management, the linkages and interactions among the relevant stakeholders (ponggawa-sawi participants, local government and independent fishers) are examined. The reasons for integrating the ponggawa-sawi into co-management include the failure of government to manage the fishery resources, the significant role of the ponggawa-sawi institution in local fisheries, and the recently enacted New Local Government Administration Act No.22/1999, which provides legal recognition of traditional fishers in local resource management. Combining the significant stakeholders, including the patron-client institution in a co-management framework should provide local leadership, lead to stability in the fisheries, and promote equity of access to the coastal fisheries resources of South Sulawesi.en_US
