目标：评估烟草业如何与工会妇女联盟 (CLUW) 建立政治关系，并从这个例子中了解烟草控制倡导者如何与工人阶级妇女所属的组织更有效地合作。方法：该研究审查了烟草业文件以确定烟草研究所的战略，使用 CLUW 新闻和其他已发表的材料来证实我们的研究结果。结果：烟草研究所有效地以以下方式制定消费税和无烟工作场所问题：促进 CLUW 对这些问题上的行业立场的支持。烟草协会也愿意通过向 CLUW 提供财政和其他类型的支持来作为回报。结论：虽然烟草控制在 20 世纪 80 年代和 90 年代错过了与 CLUW 在无烟工作场所和消费税方面合作的机会，但烟草控制也可以利用问题框架和互惠与代表职业妇女利益的组织结成联盟。
Objectives: To assess how the tobacco industry established a political relationship with the Coalition of Labor Union Women (CLUW) and to learn from this example how tobacco control advocates can work more effectively with organisations with which working class women are affiliated.Methods: The study reviewed tobacco industry documents to determine Tobacco Institute strategy, using the CLUW News and other published material to corroborate our findings.Results: The Tobacco Institute was effective at framing excise tax and smokefree worksite issues in a way that facilitated CLUW's support of industry positions on these issues. The Tobacco Institute was also willing to reciprocate by providing financial and other kinds of support to CLUW.Conclusions: While tobacco control missed an opportunity to partner with CLUW on smokefree worksites and excise taxes in the 1980s and 1990s, tobacco control can also use issue framing and reciprocity to form coalitions with organisations representing the interests of working women.
