Focus is given to cross border waste transfer, as an ongoing and controversial practice, making waste management a global matter. This book scrutinizes existing international, European and Brazilian regulation on waste to highlight the complexity of the subject and the weaknesses of the law. Using a critical and socio-ecological approach, the book proposes an original model of governance to support a new system of global waste management that takes into account ecological sustainability and social justice to overcome the waste crisis. To create these models, a theoretical framework on socio-ecological justice is developed and combined with different discourses and theories described throughout the book. This is the essential guide to understanding the global waste crisis and the future of waste management.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kamila Pope\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789660793\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789660791\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kogan Page\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/28\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.25d","brand":"Kamila Pope","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43942633832703,"sku":"9781789660791","price":232.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_529311f4-d7cf-4229-acd3-234b6f38cef1.jpg?v=1681493483","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/global-waste-management-kamila-pope-9781789660791","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
