Abstract
Chapter 3 introduces set-theoretic multi-method research, a method which combines fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) at the comparative level with the comparative historical method of process tracing at the within case level. The advantages of this method for the study of human trafficking are outlined along with the data sources and steps to prepare for analysis. The results of the fsQCA analysis for pathways leading to high human trafficking flows and high emigration flows are outlined and discussed. These pathways confirm the role of the theoretical framework in illuminating the conditions which are associated with explaining the origin of human trafficking flows. Each of the pathways shows unique combinations of conditions such as economic dominance, globalisation, income inequality, gender inequality, corruption, and state fragility. That the solutions leading to high human trafficking flows were identical or similar to several of the seven pathways leading to high emigration flows confirms the link between migration and human trafficking. The chapter concludes by outlining the next steps of exploring case studies from these pathways. With process tracing, historical analysis of countries from three different geographic regions are used to tease out how these pathways emerged over time in Chapters 4 through 6.
