A more holistic, integrated approach to ocean management that acknowledges the
interconnectedness of human and natural systems is timely. However, there is a

aquaculture within the emerging management of the marine realm. What is at odds
is the management discourse of the politically powerful vs. newcomers, reaffirming
the socially constructed nature of knowledge.
