| Abstract | Kerala is a maritime state which supports a well established marine fishing industry. A vibrant traditional fisheries sector survives in the state despite the expansion of mechanisation. The traditional sector has also imbibed certain aspects of mechanisation by going in for engine power to propel their crafts, but the fishing operations and the social relations among fishermen are still influenced by traditional systems. Traditional knowledge and belief systems influence the fishing operations, sharing work and income and many other aspects of life. |
