Abstract:
The problematic issue of finding alternatives for the disposal of e-waste is highly relevant. The purpose of the article is to analyze Chinas policy towards WEEE exports. The methodology is presented by the methods of political-legal analysis and case study. The results show that in China, the level of production of electronic and electrical equipment significantly exceeds the level of production of WEEE. Taking into account the Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal, the study examines the reasons for Chinas refusal to import WEEE, as well as promising directions for Chinas legislative regulation in the field of waste management.
