Resource management in the coastal zone involves a large number of stakeholders
and resource users, from traditional fishermen and recreational housing owners to
state and municipal government. The aim of this study is to show how spatial scarcity
in Norwegian aquaculture is not solely a technical definition, but scarcity also
depends upon the social context in which it operates. That is, what has influenced
Norwegian aquaculture policy in spatial terms? This question is answered by looking
at how allocation of space has developed from the early 1970s and to the present,
what actors were involved, what arguments did they use and what was the spatial
outcome of the chosen policies. Through a literature review, I have shown how
discourses of regional policy, industrial policy, environmental policy and health
policy have affected the spatial allocation of aquaculture licenses in the past.
Moreover, I show that these discourses are a part of a larger coastal zone
management discourse, which is becoming increasingly popular. Thus, scarcity of
space in aquaculture is defined within the discursive framework that it operates.
