“…In other words, not only did the policy not decrease total tobacco consumption and factory-made cigarette smoking, it seems to have had counter-effective consequences by nudging individuals to experiment with RYO cigarette smoking that is harder to quit because of social consequences. Such social consequences include belonging to a group and taking part in social rituals associated with RYO tobacco smoking that are particularly engaging [15,42,43].…”

“…Analogous social consequences have been observed in the context of alcohol consumption-even those who dislike the taste of alcohol still consume it if they see this consumption as a way to foster social connections. In addition, failing to conform to group norms could result in individuals losing their group membership privileges [43].…”

Despite e-cigarettes’ increasing popularity, traditional cigarette smoking, particularly with roll-your-own (RYO) tobacco, persists as the predominant form of global tobacco consumption. We examine the effect of an antismoking pricing policy on smokers’ behavior by assessing changes in their households’ consumption of tobacco products. To do so, we use a pricing policy implemented in Israel that introduced significant tax increases on RYO tobacco and factory-made cigarettes as our research setting. We analyze data compiled by a national agency on 8000 households representing the smoking population, evaluating changes in smoking behavior through their expenditures on tobacco products. Our model assesses the policy’s impact on tobacco and cigarettes consumed, as well as the probability of households consuming these products. We find that the policy reduced neither overall tobacco consumption nor cigarettes smoked, contrary to expectations. Instead, it was associated with an increased likelihood of households choosing RYO cigarettes and the number of RYO cigarettes consumed. The study emphasizes that anti-smoking pricing policies may inadvertently promote RYO tobacco use, potentially harming public health. To mitigate this, we recommend designing price policies that eliminate perceived gaps between RYO tobacco and factory-made cigarettes. This approach can discourage substitution and foster the deconsumption of both products.

“…The importance of understanding the social context within which the change is needed has been emphasised S. Peattie & Peattie, 2003;Veeck et al, 2018). This context includes the different mechanisms, conditions, institutions and norms that may either support or inhibit certain types of behaviours (see, e.g.…”

The purpose of the paper is to examine how market actors participate in the socio-cultural construction of the food waste issue through social media. The paper draws from practice theory and adopts a research approach combining netnography and discourse analysis. The data consist of postings within a vivid social media discussion during a social marketing campaign. The findings shed light on how different market actors construct the food waste issue through discourses of explanation, exhibition and appeal. These discourses differ in their focus, tone and, most importantly, their potential for practice change in the context of food waste. The study emphasises the importance of understanding the discourses of complex sustainability issues and acknowledges the role of social marketing in maintaining and/or transforming these discourses.
