In order to advance both the mapping and theorizing of transnational law, this article considers a range of tactics used by small-scale fisheries (SSFs) in Europe and North America to improve market access, political influence, and legal recognition. Transnational law enables the framing of initiatives not only as implementation practices that occur as a result of international law, but also as transnational regulation in support of SSFs. The article uses the case study of SSFs to draw attention to the rise of ‘transnational localism’. This is defined as the reinforcement of local-specific approaches (reflecting local ecologies, values, and socio-economic specificities) within a transnational structure that provides support and recognition. It offers an alternative to the view that globalization necessitates global, uniform regulatory solutions. Transnational localism challenges the fascination with large certification schemes such as that administered by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) in fisheries governance. It implies a need to reconcile transnational challenges with heterogeneous values and community approaches. To capture the simultaneous demand for the local and transnational within transnational law, this article proposes treating the described empowerment tactics within the scope of transnational standards. This requires a rethinking of standards away from fixed technical rules that are uniformly applicable across the globe.

跨国地方主义：通过小规模渔业标准制定赋予权力

为了推进跨国法的映射和理论化，本文考虑了欧洲和北美小规模渔业 (SSF) 用于改善市场准入、政治影响和法律认可的一系列策略。跨国法不仅使倡议成为国际法的结果，而且使倡议成为支持小规模渔业的跨国监管。文章使用 SSF 的案例研究来提请人们注意“跨国地方主义”的兴起。这被定义为在提供支持和认可的跨国结构中加强针对当地的方法（反映当地生态、价值观和社会经济特性）。它提供了一种替代观点，即全球化需要全球统一的监管解决方案。跨国地方主义挑战了对大型认证计划的迷恋，例如由海洋管理委员会 (MSC) 在渔业治理方面管理的认证计划。这意味着需要协调跨国挑战与异质价值观和社区方法。为了捕捉跨国法律中对地方和跨国的同时需求，本文建议在跨国标准的范围内处理所描述的赋权策略。这需要重新思考标准，远离全球统一适用的固定技术规则。这意味着需要协调跨国挑战与异质价值观和社区方法。为了捕捉跨国法律中对地方和跨国的同时需求，本文建议在跨国标准的范围内处理所描述的赋权策略。这需要重新思考标准，远离全球统一适用的固定技术规则。这意味着需要协调跨国挑战与异质价值观和社区方法。为了捕捉跨国法律中对地方和跨国的同时需求，本文建议在跨国标准的范围内处理所描述的赋权策略。这需要重新思考标准，远离全球统一适用的固定技术规则。
