Description: |
During the past 25 years there has been a dramatic transformation in public policy towards smoking. This book is an interdisciplinary collection of research essays which examine various aspects of smoking policy. Topics include tort cases against tobacco companies, how the political culture of different countries shapes smoking policy, the enforcement of anti-smoking regulations, comparing cigarette policy with the policies for illicit drugs, and the regulation oftobacco advertising. |
Synopsis: |
This work examines the interplay between public attitudes and governmental action as norms have changed on where and whether one should smoke. With evidence accumulating on the serious health risks of smoking to both smokers and nonsmokers, an interdisciplinary team of experts in law, public health, communications, political science, and sociology addresses a wide range of tobacco control issues--the politics of regulatory enactment and enforcement, tobacco advertising, cigarette litigation, and strategies of insurers and employers. |
