Tobacco is the leading preventable cause of death. This application seeks funding to continue and extend our research on how the tobacco industry and tobacco control advocates seek to influence state and local policy making with the overall goal of developing knowledge that will lead to more effective tobacco control policies, taking into account changes that have taken place in the last two years, such as the Master Settlement Agreement (MSA) that ended state tobacco litigation. The specific aims are: (1) Document and analyze the evolution of policy making with regard to tobacco control programs in a variety of states, including some with "mature" tobacco control programs that were created before the recent round of litigation as well as "new" states with tobacco control programs funded with money from the MSA. (2) Identify and describe new tobacco industry strategies for using surrogates to oppose state and local tobacco control efforts, beginning with the hospitality industry and claims that smoke free workplace laws hurt the hospitality business. (3) Understand the increasing importance of tobacco marketing to 18-24 year olds (as opposed to 12-17 year olds) for recruitment and retention of new smokers, with particular emphasis on bars as marketing venues. (4) Conduct a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of different tobacco control strategies. While the tobacco industry and its allies have attempted to present legitimate public health activities as unwarranted government intrusion into personal freedom, the underlying goal has been to prevent or delay the implementation of public policies to reduce cancer and heart disease. As with any disease, it is important to understand the vector of the disease in order to develop and implement effective control strategies. In the case of preventing lung and other cancer, as well as heart disease, it is necessary to understand the activities of the tobacco industry. This research will use case study and other methodologies to further this understanding.

烟草是可预防的主要死因。 这项申请寻求资金，以继续和扩大我们的研究如何烟草业和烟草控制倡导者寻求影响国家和地方的政策制定与发展知识，将导致更有效的烟草控制政策的总体目标，考虑到已经发生的变化在过去两年中，如主和解协议（MSA），结束了国家烟草诉讼。 具体目标是：（1）记录和分析各州烟草控制计划政策制定的演变，包括一些在最近一轮诉讼之前制定的“成熟”烟草控制计划以及由MSA资助的烟草控制计划的“新”州。(2)确定并描述新的烟草业战略，利用代理人反对州和地方的烟草控制工作，从酒店业开始，并声称无烟工作场所法律损害了酒店业。(3)了解针对18-24奥尔兹（而不是12-17奥尔兹）的烟草营销对于招募和留住新吸烟者的重要性日益增加，特别强调酒吧作为营销场所。(4)对不同烟草控制策略的有效性进行比较分析。 虽然烟草业及其盟友试图将合法的公共卫生活动说成是政府对个人自由的无理侵犯，但其根本目标是阻止或推迟实施减少癌症和心脏病的公共政策。 与任何疾病一样，重要的是要了解疾病的媒介，以便制定和实施有效的控制战略。 在预防肺癌和其他癌症以及心脏病的情况下，有必要了解烟草业的活动。 本研究将使用个案研究和其他方法来进一步理解这一点。
