"Krishnan's study of e-waste, its informal recycling and circular reprocessing-and the new policy to formalise it-provides granular evidence of unintended policy effects and the paradoxical waste of the very human and material resources that the policy seeks to develop. A must-read for wastistas and for policy scholars and practitioners."
-Barbara Harriss-White, University of Oxford
"Krishnan's research makes a compelling case for designing e-waste policies in collaboration with informal processors by recognizing and valuing their system."
-Martha Alter Chen, WIEGO, Harvard University
This book focuses on the economic, political, and cultural factors that make up India's "informal processors," which are the highly networked, multi-generational systems that reuse, repurpose, and otherwise dispose of 80% of India's electronic waste. The research includes insight from more than ninety interviews with forty-nine key stakeholdersworking within India's e-waste processing industry.
Throughout the book, T S Krishnan explores the complexities of the e-waste industry and comprehensively explains the importance of developing context-specific solutions that leverage the inherent strengths of informal processors. The resulting resource offers a counterpoint to mainstream arguments that dismiss the value of expertise from informal processors.
