摘要

背景:在拉丁美洲和加勒比,食品工业的商业利益支配着食品环境,危及目前为改善人口健康和营养所作的努力。本研究旨在记录食品行业采用的企业政治活动(CPA)的行动战略、机制和实践(ASMP),以阻碍拉丁美洲和加勒比地区国家的公共卫生、食品和营养政策。根据来自拉丁美洲和加勒比区域33个国家的科学文献和灰色文献的公开数据来源进行了叙述性审查。收集了在健康、食品和营养政策周期内食品工业CPA的数据。为了进行分析,我们采用了Ulucanlar等人(2023)开发的对注册会计师的ASMP进行分类的框架,以及Knill和Tosun(2008)提出的政策周期模型。结果:使用跨多个数据库的搜索策略和引文跟踪检查了2018年1月至2024年10月发表的文件。总共有来自拉丁美洲和加勒比地区24个国家的76份文件被纳入分析。大多数文献来自墨西哥(n = 22, 28.9%)和巴西(n = 12, 15.8%),值得注意的是,这些文献集中发表于2022年。包装正面食品标签和对含糖饮料征税是最具CPA证据的政策。最常确定的行动战略是获取和影响政策制定(n = 69, 90.8%),主要是在政策周期的制定、通过和执行阶段。虽然CPA的机制和做法因国家而异,但在整个审查过程中记录了900多个做法实例。结论:尽管在拉丁美洲和加勒比地区,特别是在中美洲和加勒比地区,公共信息的可得性有限,但本审查确定了用于影响卫生、食品和营养政策进程的广泛的ASMP。这些调查结果突出表明,需要采取多方面的应对措施,以抵消食品工业对拉丁美洲和加勒比地区的影响的有害影响,并强调了保障公众健康的紧迫性。建立强有力的法律框架来规范利益冲突并确保在整个政策周期中提高透明度,是在整个区域创造更健康的食品环境的关键步骤。

Corporate political activity of the food industry in the development of food policies in Latin America and the Caribbean: a narrative review of the current literature.

Background: In Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), the commercial interests of the food industry dominate the food environment, jeopardising current efforts to improve the health and nutrition of the population. This study aims to document action strategies, mechanisms and practices (ASMP) of corporate political activity (CPA) employed by the food industry to obstruct public health, food, and nutrition policies in LAC countries. A narrative review was conducted based on publicly available data sources from scientific and grey literature across the 33 countries in the LAC region. Data were collected on the food industry's CPA within the health, food and nutrition policy cycle. For the analysis, the framework developed by Ulucanlar et al. (2023) to categorise ASMP of CPA, together with the policy cycle model proposed by Knill and Tosun (2008), was applied.

Results: Documents published from January 2018 to October 2024 were examined using search strategies across multiple databases and citation tracking. In total, 76 documents from 24 countries in LAC were included in the analysis. The majority of documents originated from Mexico (n = 22, 28.9%) and Brazil (n = 12, 15.8%), with a notable concentration published in 2022. Front-of-pack food labelling and taxation of sugar-sweetened beverages were the policies with the most documented CPA evidence. The most frequently identified action strategy was accessing and influencing policy making (n = 69, 90.8%), primarily in the policy cycle formulation, adoption and implementation phases. While the CPA mechanisms and practices varied by country, more than 900 examples of practices were documented throughout the review.

Conclusions: Despite the limited availability of public information in LAC -particularly in Central America and the Caribbean- this review identified a broad range of ASMP used to influence health, food and nutrition policy processes. These findings highlight the need for a multifaceted response to counteract the harmful effects of the food industry's influence in the LAC region and underscore the urgency of safeguarding public health. Establishing robust legal frameworks to regulate conflicts of interest and to ensure greater transparency throughout the policy cycle are critical steps toward creating healthier food environments across the region.

期刊介绍: "Globalization and Health" is a pioneering transdisciplinary journal dedicated to situating public health and well-being within the dynamic forces of global development. The journal is committed to publishing high-quality, original research that explores the impact of globalization processes on global public health. This includes examining how globalization influences health systems and the social, economic, commercial, and political determinants of health. The journal welcomes contributions from various disciplines, including policy, health systems, political economy, international relations, and community perspectives. While single-country studies are accepted, they must emphasize global/globalization mechanisms and their relevance to global-level policy discourse and decision-making.
