This international handbook scrutinizes waste management in both developed and developing economies. It comprises original contributions from many of the most prominent scholars researching this topic. The Handbook serves to further the understanding of the behaviors of waste generators and waste processors and the array of policies influencing these behaviors.
In chapter 8, Professor Yokoo examines the international market for solid waste. Countries internationally trade waste, recyclables, and used durable goods. The literature devoted to each of these three trade patterns is carefully reviewed.
