I am writing an explanatory essay regarding a Grimm fairy tale. I started my second body paragraph with the following sentence: "In accordance with violence, poverty also plays a role . . ."
I was wondering if the phrase "in accordance with" even makes sense in the sentence. I would really like to use that phrase, or one very similar to it.
Any and all advice would be appreciated.
