Question 1. On page 31 in The Global Turn, Chapter 2, the authors recommend looking beyond the nation-state as the core unit of analysis and " begin to identify, integrate, and analyze global structures, systemic forces, and regulatory issues that operate both above and below the level of the nation-state" (Darian-Smith and McCarty, 2017: p. 31). Describe how the film illustrates the idea of looking beyond the nation-state through the case of banana multinationals.

Question 2. The film spends a lot of time talking about the importance of public relations and advertising. What does this say about how corporate agendas shape our global perspective? What role did public relations play for the multinational banana industry as depicted in the film?

Question 3. What are some of the legacies of the multinational banana industry for local communities (e.g. indigenous peoples, laborers, and small farmers) in Central America?
