Analytically, the section addresses set up the problem, context, research objective, and article trajectory ((Reinsberg et al., 2021)) 3. Outline guidance for this section is: State the core problem around The Relationship Between Trade and Human Rights: Sanctions, Conditionality, and Effectiveness: Policy Implications for Fragile States; explain why it matters in Uganda; define the article objective; preview the structure ((Santacreu, 2021)).
