Popis: This article highlights the challenge of environmental public policies in French West Indies islands and more particularly in Martinique. It provides answers to the question: What is the effect of the implementation of a Marine Protected Area (MPA) on the professional identity of traditional fishermen? The study, conducted with fishermen at Le Prêcheur in Martinique, brings, in an original way, some key answers on the thoughts of fishermen about biodiversity protection mechanism such as MPA. Overall, fishermen are concerned by the professional transition that the MPA creation will cause as they understand the challenge that ties-up with their identity. Thus, the stake of biodiversity protection faces the one of the preservation of fishermen identity.
