Framing nico-colonialism and nico-genocide: A critical public health review of the tobacco industry’s role as a commercial determinant of health
Background: Commercial tobacco and nicotine harms are often framed as issues of individual behaviour, product risk, or disease burden. Such framings can obscure the settler colonial and corporate structures that produce and sustain structural inequities and disproportionate harms among Indigenous peoples. Aim: This critical essay (re)frames the commercial tobacco and nicotine industry as a structural mechanism of settler colonial violence, contri…
Colonial harm in new packaging: Indigenous critiques of the tobacco industry's ‘harm reduction’ rhetoric
Over the last 75 years, we have learned that commercial tobacco use causes widespread disease and death. However, the commercial Tobacco and Nicotine Industry continues to promote, market, and sell tobacco and nicotine products to protect and expand profit. This reflects their legal obligation to act in shareholders’ best interests. While the Tobacco and Nicotine Industry heavily promotes alternative products such as electronic cigarettes and nic…
A hopeful journey: Responses to efficacy labels from people using RYO tobacco in Aotearoa New Zealand
On-pack efficacy labels could complement PWLs and support people to address the threat these warnings describe. Policymakers should explore and implement interventions such as efficacy stimuli, given these appear to resonate with priority population groups and could help reduce health inequities
Removing or returning freedom? Views on a nicotine-free generation policy held by young people from aotearoa who use electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS)
Although participants thought a nicotine-free generation could impose personal hardship, most privileged the freedom they thought it could bring over the illusory 'choice' they currently had. Policy-makers should consider looking beyond a smokefree generation to a nicotine-free generation; alongside this measure, they should implement strong enforcement and provide comprehensive support so young people addicted to nicotine can be empowered to sto…
Resisting industry narratives: Guidance to avoid tobacco and nicotine industry framing
The tobacco and nicotine industry has a long history of endangering the health and wellbeing of individuals, populations and society, including Indigenous peoples, via dubious practices and tactics that continue today. These tactics include generating opposition, fracturing consensus, dehumanizing groups and minimizing the perception of harms from tobacco use. This article offers guidance for people working in health promotion and tobacco control…
Lived experiences of stigma and altered self-perceptions among young people who are addicted to ENDS: A qualitative study from Aotearoa New Zealand
We extend earlier studies by probing the mental health burden ENDS use imposes on young people, offer new insights into how they experience addiction and outline potential policy responses. Measures reducing young people's access to ENDS are urgently needed alongside empathetic, youth-oriented cessation support
How do New Zealand youth perceive the smoke-free generation policy? A qualitative analysis
Young people's deep reflection on the SFG led most to view it as liberating rather than restrictive. Communications that avoid prompting heuristic-based responses could encourage youth to reflect on the policy and elicit strong support from the group the SFG aims to benefit
