Abstract

The location and management of landfills is among the many controversial issues confronting many American communities. Greatly increasing the controversy is the issue of interest group politics in the local landfill siting and international waste trading policies. Exploring the historical and political controversies, this study examines landfill politics in a public‐private partnership. The analysis reveals the vulnerability of local public authority and citizen participation in this kind of partnership.
