Here is my first draft thesis:
The European Union’s human trafficking legislation creates institutionalized violence for the victims of human trafficking.
I then decided that this was really bare bones and needed some more explaining:
Much attention has been given to the lack of victim care in the European Union’s legislation that addresses human trafficking; this lack of victim care can be understood as institutionalized violence on the part of the European Union toward human trafficking victims.
One of my friends stopped by and gave me this language for it:
European Union human trafficking legislation and feminist non-governmental organization practices need to be reconciled to address the institutional violence perpetuated by the European Union against human trafficking victims.
I’m still debating if the part about feminist NGO practices should be in my thesis because the main point of my paper is to create a narrative of institutional violence against human trafficking victims on the part of the European Union. It will be my recommendation to adopt feminist NGO practices, but that will not be the main portion of my paper.
So, here is the draft thesis that I have settled on for now:
European Union human trafficking legislation creates institutionalized violence against human trafficking victims. Though there has been much coverage of the lack of human trafficking victim care on the part of European Union, this paper will create a narrative of institutionalized violence that will demonstrate the need for reconciliation of European Union legislation and human trafficking victims.
