Welcome
Welcome to the website of the Centre for Maritime Research MARE. MARE is an interdisciplinary social-science institute studying the use and management of marine resources. Its objective is to provide a stimulating intellectual climate for academics and policy makers in Europe as well as in the South.
The photograph above was taken by Hugo Schuitemaker (www.zeeliefhebbers.nl). It portrays a Dutch fisher who, later in life, has shifted to a sustainable, MSC-certified fishery. Only time will tell whether this has been a viable choice, and what the consequences will be. The quest for sustainability marks many policy initiatives for coasts and seas, however, and therefore the social science research agenda too. The picture is therefore an appropriate contemporary 'image' for MARE.
