Public management and negotiations in the national fisheries sector

Abstract

This article is an analysis focused on the analysis of the public management of the Venezuelan State in terms of allocation of fisheries subsidies, as well as the identification of possible failures in the administrative processes of control of the proper use of these subsidies. To this end, the general objective is to analyze the public management of the Venezuelan State and the negotiations in the country's fisheries sector within the framework of the Agreements of the Doha Round of Negotiations of 2001. The design of the research was documentary, taking as main reference: Strategic Planning, Budget and Control of Public Management by Adalberto Zambrano Barrios (2006); Non-Agricultural Subsidies in WTO, Considerations for Negotiation by Pablo Klein Bernard (2008). Similarly, the Law of Reform of the Decree with Status, Value and Force of Law Fisheries and Aquaculture (2014); The Doha Development Round Eight Years After Major Intentions to Modest Garcia Matamoros Agreements (2010). The methodology used corresponds to the analytical research model. The research concludes that, being the fishing activity of great importance in the diet of the individual, coupled with this, constitutes the sustenance of a large number of population in different countries who are dedicated to this activity, thus contributing to the development and socioeconomic growth of the countries; at present it is being affected by the phenomenon of overfishing, which has caused their respective consequences. One of the possible causes could be found in government policies to support fishing activity, known as subsidies; This is largely due to the failure of public policies on fisheries, which have not been effective enough to ensure responsible and efficient public management. Anadequate public management offers an alternative administration with greater management capacity, continuous improvement of administrative procedures that guarantee compliance with formal requirements, laws, regulations, rules and those administrative procedures that allow supervision by the State; minimizing the possible negative impact of fisheries subsidies on the population of aquatic species and the correct use of the resources allocated by the State for this important activity.
