The central question posed is whether advancing a circular economy provides a way to shift waste management practices towards more sustainable approaches. It begins with an in-depth analysis of the nature of waste management and the prevailing crisis, followed by a discussion about the circular economy in terms of its requirements and the challenges of implementation. The book then moves on to propose a framework that sets out how to establish the policy changes needed to advance a circular approach to waste management. Next, the book outlines complex issues in multilevel systems for advancing a circular economy through examining the contemporary situation in Belgium and Norway. It ends by bringing together the issues revealed in these case studies and draws insights for governments advocating circular approaches. The book will be a valuable resource to scholars, students, practitioners and policy makers interested in developing more sustainable methods of waste management. Stephen M Jones is a senior lecturer in public sector management in the Business School at the University of Queensland, Australia. 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aEnvironmental policy 606 $aSociology 606 $aRefuse and refuse disposal 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEcology 606 $aEnvironmental Policy 606 $aSociology 606 $aWaste Management/Waste Technology 606 $aEnvironmental Management 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEnvironmental Sciences 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aRefuse and refuse disposal. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aEcology. 615 14$aEnvironmental Policy. 615 24$aSociology. 615 24$aWaste Management/Waste Technology. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aSustainability. 615 24$aEnvironmental Sciences. 676 $a333.709481 676 $a363.728 700 $aJones$b Stephen$0340326 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484660103321 996 $aAdvancing a circular economy$91895727 997 $aUNINA
