The relation between globalization and the municipal solid waste management takes over a very high relevance that can´t be neglected. More than a simple impact over the techniques of handle municipal solid waste, the globalization provides a great influence in the quantity and the kind of solid wastes, essencially because of the pattern of consumption difused by the great corporations and by some of its profits strategies, such as the planned obsolescence and the production of superfluous products. Besides, the gobalization can also impose an unequal political and economical relation between developed countries and underdeveloped countries, generating a very big disparity between appraised and neglected dominions by international funds. In Brazil, the mattern of informal waste colectors, the miraculous myth of recycling, the new role that State is taking over in the management of its territory and the political difficulties that small tows face for municipal solid waste management are some examples of how globalization contributes for making harder the execution of its service.
