Analysis of smoking regulations in Australia and the Czech Republic
Dokulilová, Markéta ; Mirvald, Michal (advisor) ; Babin, Jan (referee)
The main goal of this thesis is to analyze the effectiveness of state smoking regulations and its impact on the consumer behaviour in Australia and the Czech Republic. The thesis describes all established and possible government mechanisms in reducing smoking in detail and indicates future development of those tools as well. Furthermore, there is a theoretical explanation of a consumer reaction to different types of regulations based on a theory of rational addiction (Becker, Murphy, 1988). The question of the effectiveness of regulations and their impact on consumer behaviour in Australia and the Czech Republic was examined by using a questionnaire survey. The results of the thesis have confirmed that the price was not the most effective way of regulating smoking in both countries. On the contrary, smoking bans in public places have been identified as the tool with the strongest impact on reducing smoking. Australia and the Czech Republic both slightly differs in reactions on the smoking regulations, but the main conclusions of the thesis are similar in both countries.
