Change in tobacco excise policy in Bulgaria: the role of tobacco industry lobbying and smuggling.

Objectives: To examine how transnational tobacco companies (TTCs) tried to penetrate the Bulgarian cigarette market and influence tobacco excise tax policy after the fall of communism and during Bulgaria's accession to the European Union (EU).
