This process is enshrouded in an environment of economic globalisation, taking place against the backdrop of the governance approach. Taking this situation as our starting point, our main goal is to quantify the effects that the Spanish port devolution process might have on the Spanish fisheries sector using a transfer function model; we take, as dependent variables, both the volumes of landings at State ports of general interest and their cashvalue.
