This presentation will demonstrate how through the use of critical discourse analysis three main levels of power relations were found, each having significant impacts on the knowledge production around human trafficking. By addressing the commonalities as well as the differences between the governmental and non-governmental organizations, this presentation will also discuss how power relates to the discourses of human trafficking that are most commonly disseminated to the general public, and how this may be problematic in continuing to silence certain groups in society.260.33 KBPDFenAll Rights Reservedhuman traffickingnon-governmental organizationsUndergraduate Thesishttps://doi.org/10.31542/r.gm:1822
