Résumé :
ENGLISH :
As for any other commodity, demand for tobacco responds to price changes: when prices rise, demand for tobacco falls. Price increases encourage cessation, reduce average cigarette consumption among continuing smokers, and deter initiation. Tax increases are thus widely accepted as a key component of tobacco control policy.
