elite rather than popular concerns springs from the smoking ban comes.. It’s not because the Spanish elite doesn’t like smoking: prime minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero was recently caught smoking a traditional cigarette not and electronic cigarettes, on his presidential plane. Rather, the smoking ban is playing a precise political purpose. Ban something is what the state can do these days. While the Spanish state may be impotent to impact the economic problem, the smoking ban is the kind of procedure it can take to ‘improve the public health’ and prolong its authority. Greece – the other European country feeling the brunt of the economic situation and having its economic policy formed by commissioners in Brussels – also passed a smoking ban recently. The Greek prime minister said that the ban would ‘change people’s perceptions and behaviour, and increase their quality of life’. What we see with the distribute of smoking bans around Europe is the shift in the act of the state, from the legislation of economic life to the legislation of informal social life. The pattern for the new Eastern entrants to the EU was first to sell off their public industries, and second to bring through actions such as smoking bans in bars and cafes (even though 40 per cent or more of their populations smoked). when the state cannot make things happen, it can at least stop people from doing things, is that we see clearly, in Spain and Greece, that the ban is the las refuge of public politicy. A stroke to change social life is the thing that can be done with a lifestyle ban.The smoking ban is one of a growing list of Spanish bans. if a minor is present, the Basque region, recently banned people from smoking in their automobiles.
