Abstract:This briefing examines a largely neglected aspect of the current efforts by State agents in Namibia to gain control over the extraction of natural resources. Under the guise of economic indigenization and empowerment, a small government-sponsored elite are acquiring fishing resources for their private benefit with little or no benefit to the marginalized majority of Namibians.
