The subject of this essay is waste and waste management in Sweden during the years1975-2005. The purpose of this investigation is to identify which factors that have affectedthe development of waste management from a political angle in order to identifycharacteristic features of the period in terms of waste management regime. The investigationorigins from Ylva Sjöstrand’s thesis about resource recovery, incineration and tippingof waste in Stockholm 1900-1975 and the theoretical framework in this essay is based onher thesis.By analysing three propositions from the years 1975, 1993 and 2003 concerning wasteand waste management I will argue that the new waste management regime that dominatedSweden during 1975-2005 is called sustainability regime. The name sustainabilityregime is therefore the result which this essay leads to.
