Abstract

The intent of this article is to introduce a relatively new federal program funding social science research on fisheries in Alaska. We discuss some of the challenges of this developing applied social science program, specifically focusing on some of the issues raised by research involving the collection and analysis of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and its application to fisheries management in Alaska. We highlight several projects funded through the program, and close with some observations on elements of successful projects.
