Political regulation and radical institutional change: The case of aquaculture in Norway

Bernt Aarset and Stig-Erik Jakobsen

Marine Policy, 2009, vol. 33, issue 2, 280-287

Abstract: This study investigates the transformation of the political regulation of the Norwegian aquaculture industry. The study is conducted as a historical-institutional analysis of industrial development combined with analyses of the multiple impacts of directives produced by changes in international political institutions. We describe a transformation from a corporate regulation regime to a new regime based on control and monitoring. The origin of these changes is very much a result of the interplay between actors and organizations at separate but interconnected levels. Our empirical discussion is informed by the neoinstitutional organization theory.
