Allt frá landnámi hafa fiskveiðar verið mikilvægasta atvinnugrein þjóðarinnar og fyrr á öldum sóttu erlendar þjóðir stíft á miðin kringum Ísland. Baskar stunduðu hér hvalveiðar, Frakkar voru hér langdvölum og Norðmenn reistu hér bæði hvalstöðvar og síldarverksmiður, auk þess að stunda hér línuveiðar. Ísland var miðstöð hval- og síldveiða og erlendir sjó- og kaupsýslumenn settu sín spor í íslenska menningu, tækniframfarir og atvinnuhætti. Víða um land er að finna minjar um horfna tíð, spor í söguna sem eru verðmæti á heimsmælikvarða.

In their article Gísli Pálsson and Agnar Helgason discuss cross-cultural parallels in moral debate about the expansion of market relations to new areas of social life, with particular reference to their ethnographic work on the commoditization of resource rights in Iceland. Expanding a theoretical approach introduced by other scholars, they propose that spatial metaphors can provide an effective means of conceptualizing the anthropological study of commoditization.
Gisli Palsson and Agnar Helgason discuss in this article published in the Skirni in 1999, about fishing in Iceland and Icelandic society has changed radically in the twentieth century and use anthropological potentials to shed light on several issues related to disputes about the quota system. Talking about what caused the theoreticians of whom originally laid the foundation for the idea of a quota system in the world and emphasizes the importance of private ownership. Attention is also given to the objectives that were taken into account when it was decided to adopt a quota system in the Cod fishery in this country. Finally, they discussed changes in the distribution of quotas of the extradition was given free in 1991 and ethical discussions among people about the assignment and quota system.

He plays general Together "Ethnographic" knowledge of fishing and farming in Iceland and Statistical knowledge of fishing for cod of the a fishing center. The results revealed that Although to some extentions Possible to explain the choice of hunting location with Regard to Objective and measurable Factors is not ruled out entirely the insights and innovative brainstorm are Related. However, will not explain the clear relationship between master methods of Decision making and how well They Provider.
In their article from 1983, published in the American Ethnological Society, Gísli Pálsson and E. Paul Durrenberger discuss two folk models which explain differential fishing success in Iceland. One applies to the short term and is based on material factors; the other refers to the long term of seasons and careers and centers on the personal qualitys of skippers, or the skipper effect. They show that the skipper effect cannot account for differential fishing success and develop a sociological explanation for the ideology of skipper effect and how the ideology developed in response to historical changes in the social relations of production in fishing.
