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.

This work deals with the development of legislation to regulate advertising of tobacco products and its current form, cases in tobacco advertising, legal form in the EU, and compares them with the situation in the U.S.. I deal with a comparison of their efficiencies and I try to find positive and negative aspects of enactments. In the second part follows the development of legislation of smoking regulations in the Czech republic and some other countries. At the end I valorize the efficiency and the consequences of these regulations.
