This article establishes a comparative analysis of urban mining in the Sao PauloMacrometropolis (Brazil) and the Greater Accra Region (Ghana) through exploratory qualitative research. The results reveal a broad spectrum ofactor-network arrangements established in the universe of e-waste, also confirming the relevance of political economy for understanding thetechnical and regulatory aspects of recycling in different geographical contexts. 2021 artículo científico 1984-2201 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=273667617015 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2736/273667617015/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2736/273667617015/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2736/273667617015/273667617015.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2736/273667617015/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2736 Mercator - Revista de Geografia da UFC application/pdf Universidade Federal do Ceará Mercator - Revista de Geografia da UFC (Brasil) Num.2 Vol.20 |
