Abstrak

The limited understanding of the historical development of small-scale fisheries policy in Southeast Sulawesi Province has prompted this research. This historical review delineates the evolution of small-scale fisheries management policies in Southeast Sulawesi over time, spanning from the Old Order era, through the New Order era, to the Reform Era. This study aims to gain a deeper understanding of the historical development of small-scale fisheries policy since the establishment of Southeast Sulawesi Province, starting from the gubernatorial administrations during the Old Order, New Order, up to the Reform Era. The method used in this research is content analysis, which is employed to explore and dissect the content or manifest meanings of written texts or communications. The analysis results demonstrate a significant evolution in policy approaches toward the fisheries sector. During the Old Order era, political and economic obstacles hindered policy implementation across all sectors, including fisheries. Meanwhile, during the New Order era, economic development became the primary focus, leading to advancements in infrastructure and economic sectors, including fisheries. The Reform Era saw a shift in focus towards fisheries growth and production, with investments in flagship industries such as seaweed cultivation and fish processing. This research also captures the context of Governor Regulation Number 36 of 2019 concerning the Management of Fisheries Access Areas (PAAP), which encourages community participation in fisheries management and raises awareness of the importance of environmental conservation.
