Summary: There is agreement that sustainability transitions should be conducted in a just manner, but the meaning of a 'just transition' and how to achieve it is not clear. Examining the justice of transitions so far has relied on normative interpretations. This study develops an instrument based on dimensions of justice to provide decision-makers with insights into societal perceptions of a just agricultural transition. The instrument can also be valuable for sustainability transitions in other sectors, although some constructs like distributive justice will require further refinement.

Summary: This research explores the universal expectations of academic freedom and faculty self-governance among faculty across countries, finding that policies aligned with these principles are perceived as fairer. While the relationships between fairness and certain policies are consistent globally, there are country-level variations in the relationship between fairness and hiring and tenure policies. This suggests that universities worldwide need to carefully balance adherence to fair practices, academic freedom, and cultural norms when making policy decisions.

Summary: Optimization models aim to maximize overall benefit or minimize total cost, but expressing fairness mathematically is less obvious. This paper provides a critical survey of various schemes for formulating ethics-related criteria, including integrating efficiency and fairness concerns. The survey covers inequality measures, Rawlsian maximin and leximax criteria, combining fairness and efficiency, alpha fairness and proportional fairness, bargaining approaches, and utility-threshold and fairness-threshold schemes. The paper also examines group parity metrics in machine learning and suggests practical approaches to model each criterion. Axiomatic and bargaining derivations of fairness criteria from social choice literature are considered, along with relevant philosophical and ethical literature.

Summary: There is a lack of integration of sustainability dilemmas and justice components in the academic discourse and policy arena surrounding the Blue Economy, despite the current interest in the topic. A comprehensive policy framework is advocated for a just and inclusive transition towards the Blue Economy. The policy proposal of Elizabeth Warren's Blue New Deal is reviewed and critiqued, with the suggestion that it could integrate justice, equity, and inclusivity into the operationalization of the Blue Economy.

Summary: This study argues that prioritizing justice is crucial for a fair and equitable international agreement on plastic pollution. Five justice principles, including distributive justice, procedural justice, and environmental justice, need to guide the development and implementation of the agreement. Strong regulatory controls and assistance for marginalized populations are also necessary. The article concludes by discussing approaches to promote these principles and enhance the treaty's legitimacy and effectiveness.

Summary: This study evaluated the socio-economic performance and evolution of two small-scale fishing communities in northern Peru using the Sustainable Livelihoods Approach. The results revealed that the fishers had low human and financial capital assets, strong social capital assets, and experienced improvements in physical capital assets while reporting declines in natural capital assets. The findings also indicated that the fishers' wellbeing was highly vulnerable to external environmental and economic drivers as well as poor governance. The study suggests potential avenues for escaping the social-ecological trap and improving their wellbeing based on commonly suggested livelihoods strategies found in the literature.

Summary: This study highlights the importance of Blue Justice in sustainable ocean development, focusing on the role of small-scale fisheries and social justice in countering the narrative of Blue Economy and Blue Growth. The injustices experienced by small-scale fisheries people, such as accusations of environmental disregard or loss of customary fishing grounds, are analyzed through the lens of epistemic injustice. The study examines 20 testimonies of these injustices and proposes a glossary of concepts to interpret them. The findings underscore the need for non-conventional terms and concepts to address epistemic injustice in small-scale fisheries and emphasize the potential contribution of transdisciplinary research in advancing the goal of Blue Justice.

Summary: Research on gender in fisheries emphasizes the importance of recognizing women's contributions, but often overlooks how women experience belonging in fisheries. This paper analyzes how women construct and perform gendered belonging in male-dominated UK fisheries, highlighting the role women play in shaping fishing communities and challenging traditional notions of belonging in the industry. Women's belongings in fishing are co-constructed in relation to the more-than-human elements of fishing, such as materialities, smells, and non-human animals, emphasizing the fluid and adaptable nature of belonging in fisheries.

Summary: This research explores how entrepreneurship enables a renegotiation of gender relations within families and how it develops over the lifecourse through in-depth narrative interviews with women in fishing families in England and Wales. It found that women's fisheries entrepreneurship can challenge traditional gender relations and that women negotiate their entrepreneurship with other gendered roles, such as motherhood, over the lifecourse. Shifting the discourse from fisheries diversification to entrepreneurship can lead to a more serious consideration of women as fisheries workers in research and policy.

Summary: Fisheries policy plays a crucial role in democratic and inclusive governance of marine resources. Understanding fishers' knowledge, inclination, and vulnerability to proposed changes can help design inclusive and forward-thinking fishery management plans. A survey of Greenland's inshore halibut fishers revealed their lack of knowledge and unclear inclination towards proposed changes, as well as differences in vulnerability levels. Increasing the exchange of technical knowledge and involving fishers in the decision-making process is essential for achieving sustainability outcomes and protecting small-scale fisheries livelihoods.

Summary: Women in Mexico have been increasingly participating in the fishing sector, although gender inequality remains a barrier to their representation and involvement in decision-making. Gender dynamics vary by region, education level, and age group. Access to fisheries and economic resources depends on these dynamics and the availability of resources. Women in communities with more resources are more involved in fishing-related activities, while those in communities with fewer resources seek out different economic activities. Increased female labor market participation is also related to increasing household incomes and alleviating poverty. Power dynamics and gender roles differ in different household management models and cooperative structures.

Summary: This study examines the contrasting interpretations of climate-smart fisheries (CSF) policies in global north and global south, focusing on the case of Sierra Leone. The findings suggest that small-scale coastal fishers in Sierra Leone prioritize mitigating the impact of climate change on their food and income security over reducing CO2 emissions. However, the study argues that prioritizing food and income security can also contribute to CO2 emission reductions, and the two objectives are complementary rather than contradictory.

Summary: This study focuses on the paua (abalone) fishery in the Kaiko Over Bar Ura district in New Zealand, which is an important component of the local economy. The fishery was closed for 5 years due to mortality caused by an earthquake, and reopened in 2021. The study finds that the catch target was severely exceeded, highlighting the need to focus on fishing effort for sustainable management. Adjusting daily bag limits and temporal controls on the open season can help achieve a balance.
