Research aimThe main aims of this project are: to understand the role of waste1 (Thompson 1979) in a community affected by the economiccrisis ("age of austerity", Streeck and Schafer 2013); to study a community organization in a context of transformation promoted by a process ofre-thinking of waste as community resources.My research is an ethnographic engagement related to the concepts of "sustainable development","circular economy" and "waste studies" (O'Brien 2008). Since 2012, the EU commission hasproposed several legislative amendments about resources and waste management (Gregsonet.al.2015), introducing the idea of "circular economy" (European Commission 2014). This idea1 I will take into consideration mostly households waste with exception for pulper waste from paper mills' residuals.refers to an economy premised on keeping resources in circulation for as long as possible and soaims to eradicate waste. This "long term solution" is defined as "sustainable" development (Miller2012). In this context, wastes are considered useful materials in order to partially reduce theEuropean demand for natural resources. To consider wastes as resources is important to think thoseas materials (e.g.paper). These materials have monetary value if categorized and sold separately.

该项目的主要目的是：了解废物在受经济危机（“紧缩时代”，Streeck和Schafer 2013）影响的社区中的作用1 (Thompson 1979)；研究转型背景下的社区组织，这种转型是由对废物作为社区资源的重新思考过程所推动的。我的研究是与“可持续发展”、“循环经济”和“废物研究”概念相关的民族志研究（O'Brien 2008）。自2012年以来，欧盟委员会就资源和废物管理提出了几项立法修正案（Gregsonet.al.）。2015年)，引入了“循环经济”的概念（欧盟委员会2014年）。这个想法我将主要考虑家庭废物，除了纸厂残留物的纸浆废物。指以尽可能长时间地保持资源循环为前提，以消除浪费为目标的经济。这种“长期解决方案”被定义为“可持续”发展（米勒2012）。在这种情况下，废物被认为是有用的材料，以部分减少欧洲对自然资源的需求。把废物当作资源来考虑那些海洋材料（如纸张）是很重要的。这些材料如果分类并单独出售，就具有货币价值。
