Description

This contributed volume from Springer provides a holistic view of the international waste trade. It examines how the transfer of plastic waste from the Global North to Global South countries functions as a form of 21st Century colonialism. The text traces the history of this global issue, beginning with toxic disasters in the 1970s and 1980s. It explores the development of the 1989 Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal. The book also analyzes significant shifts in global policy, such as China's 2018 National Sword policy that banned the importation of plastic waste. This work is an essential resource for understanding the environmental and political dynamics of global waste disposal and ecology.
