It explains the reasons for the extraordinary rise of MPAs to the top of the political agenda for marine policy, and evaluates the scientific credentials for the unprecedented popularity of this management option. The book reveals the role played by two policy networks ? epistemic community and advocacy coalition ? in promoting the notion of MPA, showing how advocacy for marine reserves by some scientists based on limited evidence of fisheries benefits has led to a blurring of the boundary between science and politics. Second, the study investigates whether the scientific consensus on MPAs has resulted in a publication bias, whereby pro-MPA articles are given preferential treatment by peer-reviewed academic journals, though it found only limited evidence of such a bias. Third, the project conducts a systematic review of the literature to determine the ecological effects of MPAs, and reaches the conclusion that there is little proof of a positive impact on finfish populations in temperate waters. Fourth, the study uses discourse analysis to trace the effects of a public campaigning policy network on marine conservation zones (MCZs) in England, which demonstrated that there was considerable confusion over the objectives that MCZs were being designated to achieve. The book?s conclusion is that the MPA issue shows the power of ideas in marine governance, but offers a caution that scientists who cross the line between science and politics risk exaggerating the benefits of MPAs by glossing over uncertainties in the data, which may antagonise the fishing industry, delay resolution of the MPA issue, and weaken public faith in marine science if and when the benefits of MCZs are subsequently seen to be limited. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Environmental Science,$x2191-5547 ;$v0 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aEnvironmental law 606 $aEnvironmental policy 606 $aAquatic ecology  606 $aNature conservation 606 $aEnvironmental Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009 606 $aEnvironmental Law/Policy/Ecojustice$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U16002 606 $aFreshwater & Marine Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19066 606 $aNature Conservation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U26008 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aEnvironmental law. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 615 0$aAquatic ecology . 615 0$aNature conservation. 615 14$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aEnvironmental Law/Policy/Ecojustice. 615 24$aFreshwater & Marine Ecology. 615 24$aNature Conservation. 676 $a333.7 676 $a333.72 676 $a344.046 676 $a36370561 700 $aCaveen$b Alex$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058687 702 $aPolunin$b Nick$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aGray$b Tim$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aStead$b Selina Marguerite$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299454603321 996 $aThe Controversy over Marine Protected Areas$92501955 997 $aUNINA
