The aim of this contribution consists in showing how small-scale fishery systems take part in the construction of a food safety and more largely fall under a fishing sustainable development. From general reflexions and French experiments, we initially minimize the marginal small-scale fishery place within the globalized fishing food system. Thereafter, we insist on the politicization of this one on a worldwide scale like on some more local initiatives in terms of resources management and valorization, essential to increase small-scale fisheries participation in current food challenges.
