• Fair Enough? Food Security and the International Trade of Seafood (2015, background): “One reason for that disagreement is that the lens used to investigate this issue differs radically among studies (Béné et al., 2009).”
• "Trade matters in the fight against poverty": narratives, perceptions, and (lack of) evidence in the case of fish trade in Africa. (2010, background): “…are effectively supported by an adequate decentralization process (which is more or less the case in forestry—e.g., forestry management decentralization in Cameroon) but not yet in fisheries—see Béné et al. (2009b) for a recent assessment of decentralization in Africa inland fisheries.”
