  British American Tobacco - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Established in 1902, when the United Kingdom's Imperial Tobacco Company and the American Tobacco Company of the USA agreed to form a joint venture, the British-American Tobacco Company Ltd. The parent companies agreed not to trade in each other's domestic territory and to assign trademarks, export businesses and overseas subsidiaries to the joint venture.
Imperial Tobacco gradually reduced its shareholding, but it was not until 1980 that it divested its remaining interests in the company.
BAT has also used the glamour of motor sport to promote its brands, most notably in its setting up of British American Racing.

 Harm Induction vs Harm Reduction: Comparing American and British Approaches to Drug Use
The American top-down, coercive approach to the identical crisis facing Britain -- an upsurge on HIV infection transmitted through the sharing of needles by desperate drug injectors -- illustrates a crucial difference in the experience of crisis within the American as compared to British context.
Seen in international context, one aspect of the American approach without merit is the government's waging of the War on Drugs, a war absorbing the efforts and energy of the police, courts, jails, prisons, armies, and taxpayers.
British social workers who have the advantage of living in a country with a national health service and government sponsored harm reduction policies can advocate to maintain the present system which is now under threat by elements from the far right.
