Abstract

ABSTRACT Although Japan, Korea, and Taiwan are all East Asian countries, there are marked differences in the recycling policies, motivations, and methodologies of each country. One reflection of differences is the approaches each country has taken toward the OECD proposal for Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR). I consider the relationship of local governments and producers in Japan, Korea, and Taiwan from a perspective of EPR. First, I provide an outline of the establishment of waste home appliances (WHA) recycling systems. And then, I consider responsibility of each related subjects in these three countries. Lastly, I prepare the differences of EPR concept of each country.
