Description

Explore the complex relationship between human labor and the marine environment in Scotland. This ethnographic study examines how fishers use their senses and various technologies, from traditional wooden boats to modern digital GPS plotters, to navigate and work beneath the sea surface. The book investigates how these workers create familiar spaces in a hostile environment and how their lives are shaped by global capitalist forces. By analyzing the markets they sell to, the text reveals how economic pressures influence everything from individual survival to the social relations between fishers on the same vessel. It provides a deep look at the difficult choices made between safety and productivity in the fishing industry.
