Описание к видео Understanding and Researching Alcohol & Tobacco Industry Strategies to Influence Policy - GHLS

Dr Benjamin Hawkins is Associate Professor in Global Health Policy at LSHTM and Senior Research Fellow at the University of York.This lecture argues that corporations are key actors in the policy process, who adopt specific political strategies to obtain their regulatory objectives.

It highlights how these corporations operate as disease vectors, increasingly in LMIC markets, and examine contemporary policy approaches to address ‘industrial epidemics’. Finally, we will examine the similarities and differences between the tobacco and alcohol industries and question the rationale for the very different regulatory approaches taken towards them.
