The policy implementation playbook
BACKGROUND: Tobacco industry interference during policy development is well documented, yet evidence on how the industry responds after policies are adopted and enter into force remains fragmented across policy domains and jurisdictions. This study systematically examines post-adoption tobacco industry conduct across key tobacco control measures and develops a cross-policy taxonomy of post-adoption tactics. We conducted as scoping review and qual…
Advocacy counterstrategies to tobacco industry interference in policymaking
Identifying misleading corporate narratives
Narratives are key to the way corporations represent themselves to the outside world, are important to the development of shared understandings and ultimately determine whether and how corporations are able to influence societal norms and participate in policy debates. A leaked corporate affairs strategy document, from the world’s largest transnational tobacco company, Philip Morris International (PMI), suggests a company concerned about credibil…
Tobacco industry tactics to circumvent and undermine the menthol cigarette ban in the UK
Menthol, a type of alcohol (molecular formula C10H20O), can be obtained from mint plants or manufactured.1 2 In addition to flavouring, it has local anaesthetic properties that can conceal the negative sensations of smoking, due to desensitising receptors.1 3 Menthol cigarettes increase overall smoke intake, but mask early respiratory disease symptoms, reducing the chance of quitting.4–6 Smoking menthol cigarettes also may raise nicotine intake, …
Is the increasing policy use of Impact Assessment in Europe likely to undermine efforts to achieve healthy public policy
European policymakers have recently become increasingly committed to using Impact Assessment (IA) to inform policy decisions. Welcoming this development, the public health community has not yet paid sufficient attention to conceptual concerns about IA or to corporate efforts to shape the way in which IA is used. This essay is a thematic analysis of literature concerning IA and associated tools and a related assessment of the European Union's (EU)…
Puffing Away? Explaining the Politics of Tobacco Control in Germany
Germany is noted within Europe for its weak tobacco control policies and its opposition to European Union tobacco control legislation. In this article, we aim to explain Germany's stance on tobacco control. We review two explanations commonly proposed, namely tobacco industry donations to political parties and the legacy of the Nazis' opposition to smoking, and examine the politics of tobacco control in detail. We suggest that the interplay of nu…
Tobacco Industry Influence on Science and Scientists in Germany
Using tobacco industry documents, we examined how and why the tobacco industry sought to influence science and scientists in Germany as a possible factor in explaining the German opposition to stricter tobacco regulation. Smoking and health research programs were organized both separately by individual tobacco companies and jointly through their German trade organization. An extensive network of scientists and scientific institutions with tobacco…
International cooperation and health. Part I
The world is increasingly shaped by powerful global forces, many of which have consequences for human health and the social, economic, and environmental factors that influence health are increasingly determined at a supranational level. As a result, local or national level efforts to influence health determinants can have only a limited impact and it is all too easy for the individual public health practitioner to feel powerless. Yet while public…
