Maros Regency is an area that has potential coastal resources. The social interaction of fishing communities in the coastal regions of Maros Regency is relatively high in the effort to utilize fishery resources. This is marked by the various fishing gear used by fishers, so the phenomenon of fisherman conflict becomes a social process that also colours the social interactions of these fishing groups. Differences in resource utilization and management methods can trigger social conflicts between fishers involving other stakeholder components. This study aims to analyze the types and forms of conflicts in the use of coastal resources that occur in the coastal areas of Maros Regency, South Sulawesi Province. The methods used are observation, interviews and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with qualitative data analysis to describe the types and forms of conflicts in the use of coastal resources, and quantitatively with spatial analysis methods using Geographic Information System (GIS) applications to analyze conflict locations. The results showed that the types of fishing conflicts in the Maros Regency’s coastal areas were agrarian conflicts, class conflicts, technological conflicts, and conflicts of perception. The forms of conflict in the use of natural resources (including fishery resources) are horizontal conflicts (traditional fishers and klitik net fishermen) with semi-modern fishermen (cantrang fishermen) and vertical conflicts (semi-modern fishermen and cantrang fishers) with the government ( Maros District Fisheries Service, Camat and Village Heads, both open (manifest) and closed (latent).
