The framework is used to clarify weather the countries adopt a feminist or traditional approach to trafficking as a security concern. The thesis will therefor, through a comparative idea anlysis, answer ”Based on Jennifer Lobasz theoretical framework, would Swedish and American securiy interpretation of human trafficking be categorised as a feminist or traditional approach?”. The analysis of this thesis have concluded that there is no given answer to the question at issue – since it seeks for and either or answer. Instead, it has proven that Swedish and American interpretation of trafficking as a security concern contains both traditional and feminist elements. (Less)
