Abstract

The National Solid Waste Policy (Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos,pnrs) assigns Brazilian municipalities the responsibility of providing urban cleaning and waste management services; however, scholars report the difficulty of municipalities in adopting a policy that meets the obligations of the aforementioned law. This article explores the correspondences between the municipal institutional environment itself (the main socio-economic, political and cultural factors) and municipal waste management (specifically, the presence of an Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan). After a brief introduction to the issue, this paper shows a descriptive analysis of the presence of these plans in the mesore-gions of Rio Grande do Sul. The article then presents a multiple correspondence analysis that provides an exploratory overview of municipal waste management in its institutional environment.
