Large-scale adverse health and developmental outcomes related to
tobacco affect millions of people across the world, raising serious
questions from a human rights perspective. In response to this
crisis, this timely book provides a comprehensive analysis of the
promotion and enforcement of human rights protection in tobacco
control law and policy at international, regional, and domestic
levels. This thought-provoking book offers significant new insights
to the topic, laying the foundations for a human rights based
approach to tobacco control. Addressing the function of law as a
tool to help combat one of the major public health challenges
facing society, contributions by global scholars rebut human rights
claims presented by the tobacco industry. Emphasis is instead
placed upon the human rights of vulnerable individuals, children in
particular, as a result of smoking and exposure to second-hand
smoke. Illustrating ways in which the right to health can be
advanced with regards to tobacco control, smoking and the use of
e-cigarettes, this important book will be a vital resource for
human rights and health law scholars and practitioners as well as
policy makers in public health law. Contributors include: D.
