Résumé:

"What does waste have to tell us about our world? In what ways are the global economy and the production and recycling of waste connected? Who profits from waste, and who is harmed by it? And what utopian ideas can waste engender? Waste travels around the world. In industrialized countries, it is disposed of, collected, and carted away, out of sight--and, generally speaking, out of mind too. But this is just the beginning of its journey: Waste is traded and shipped elsewhere to be dumped in places where the local people are obliged to deal with it. Although the Global North produces vast quantities of household and industrial waste, the bulk of it ends up in the Global South, where it has far-reaching consequences. Since the 1960s, there has been an increasing tendency for artists to engage critically with what society regards as waste. Developed on the basis of Waste: An Exhibition About the Global Routes of Rubbish, this reader brings together interdisciplinary essays by scholars and artists who track the global routes that rubbish follows." -- Back cover.
