  abstract = {{O}cean grabbing occurs when traditional users, such as small-scale fishers, are pushed aside by new development activities. {T}his grabbing must be prevented to avoid sea uses that maintain or increase social inequity. {I}n this paper, we show that in tropical {A}tlantic countries, such as {B}razil and {S}enegal, examples of ocean grabbing already occur. {I}n this context, we analyse if {M}aritime {S}patial {P}lanning ({MSP}) may be an opportunity to limit ocean grabbing or, to the contrary, poses a risk to increase it. {MSP} calls for an ecosystem approach that requires integrated coastal and marine management and involves stakeholders in developing a shared vision of the future, where society and environment are preserved. {H}owever, recent studies have shown that {MSP} is a process to be used cautiously to ensure equitable decisions. {M}eanwhile, the concept is spreading worldwide including in tropical {A}tlantic countries. {W}e highlight that context matters and the specificities of the tropical {A}tlantic must be taken into account when deploying {MSP} processes. {I}n the tropical {A}tlantic context, there is increased imbalances of stakeholder power, traps from decision support tools, and a need for adaptive management. {T}hese specific features must be addressed when deploying {MSP} in a way to avoid ocean grabbing.},
