A paper entitled ‘The Politics of Bluefin Tuna in Malta’ by Dr Michael Briguglio, who lectures at the University’s Sociology Department, has been published in the international peer-reviewed academic journal Annuals of Marine Sociology.

The paper analyses the politics of bluefin tuna in Malta in the first years of EU accession (2004-2009). It concludes that despite making certain impacts, environmental non-governmental organisations were unsuccessful in creating a hegemonic formation to stop the fishing of bluefin tuna until stocks recover.
