prepare a global convention on tobacco control,with more than 100 countries participating in the deliberations.After three global seminars were finally adopted in 2003,the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control Health,which marks the control of smoking has become a global trend.In order to better understand the world of tobacco control environment,for several countries in the world of tobacco control legislation introduced the status quo.China is currently not a national tobacco control legislation,China's municipality directly under the Central Government,the provincial capital city,the larger cities have basic local tobacco control legislation.There are three different views on government intervention in tobacco: free smoking,that is,no intervention in smoking behavior,this view is largely opposed to the decision of the tobacco must be to interfere with smoking behavior;no smoking,Is a kind of extreme situation,similar to the ban on drugs as a whole to ban tobacco,tobacco is harmful to health,but the harm is not great,comprehensive ban on tobacco which is neither reasonable nor realistic feasibility;control smoking,that is,at some time,In some cases,certain places limit

control.Smoking can choose the channels including moral advocacy and legislation.Moral advocacy is through the tobacco control association,volunteers and other non-governmental organizations,spontaneous advocacy for smoking ban.However,the moral advocacy can achieve good results,depending on the cognitive awareness of cigarettes and self-requirements and constraints,due to the lack of enforcement,smoking behavior is too broad,moral advocacy effect is not guaranteed.Tobacco control is the best choice for legislation,the law is the bottom line of people's behavior,but

contents of: restrictions on smoking occasions,the situation,the protection of special groups,special occasions,tobacco control requirements,in violation of the relevant provisions of the law and other penalties.Tobacco control legislation is the most important content of the control of smoking places,there are three ways to legislate,exclusionary terms clearly prohibited areas;Where the terms of the list are clear,the place where you can smoke;China's local legislation to take more exclusion and combination of terms.At the same time,children and adolescents in the elderly and other special groups of pregnant women should be protected,to make special provisions.China's tobacco control legislation in the basic situation to sort out,China's first enacted tobacco control legislation of the city is Shanghai,this selection of Beijing,Shanghai,Tianjin,Guangzhou,four cities in the local legislation analysis,the four cities earlier tobacco control,but also have their own characteristics worthy of Other cities learn from their shortcomings also have a certain representation.The difficulty of legislation in China's tobacco control is to determine the location of the control of tobacco,which places to prohibit smoking,which places to control smoking,whether there are special provisions,outdoor occasions can make restrictions on smoking regulations,which circumstances must prohibit smoking.Tobacco control law enforcement is another focus of tobacco control work,the legislative punishment is also worth discussing the issue,the existing penalties to fine the main,whether there can be other ways;the main body of tobacco control law enforcement,whether only by the administrative body.
