pt. 1. The Italian environment of waste management : spatial analyses, convergence, illegal markets and policy assessments -- pt. 2. The international setting : waste trade drivers, convergence and policy making in spatial-framed environments.

Waste management/disposal performances and a desirable delinking between income and waste trends are influenced by socio economic, institutional and policy factors. In highly regionalized settings many idiosyncratic factors of local interest influence waste management and disposal. Through an...

This paper provides analyses of municipal waste generation and landfill diversion dynamics based on an 8-year panel dataset for Italy covering 103 provinces. Although absolute declining for waste generation is a long way off, there are some first signals of increasing relative delinking and...

This paper analyses the process of delinking for landfilling trends embedding the dynamics in a frame where economic, geographical and policy variables enter the arena We aim at investigating in depth what main drivers may be responsible for such a phenomenon, and whether differences may be...
