Normative and Social Influences Affecting Compliance with Fishery Regulations
研究了英国渔民对捕捞配额限制的遵从行为,发现除经济因素外,社会影响、道德价值观和法规合法性认知等非货币因素也起重要作用。
Economic models of regulatory compliance in fisheries usually assume an instrumental determination of individual behavior in which the decision to comply or to violate depends primarily on the expected monetary costs and benefits. Policy implications tend, as a result, to focus only on deterrence, that is, increasing the expected monetary costs of violation. More complete models of compliance behavior take into account factors such a social influence, moral values, and the perceived legitimacy of regulations and the regulatory authority. The paper describes an investigation into the non-monetary factors affecting compliance with output (quota) restrictions among fishermen in the United Kingdom.
