The purpose of this assignment is to find "globalization" outside the classroom and in the world around you. This assignment requires to present a critical analysis of an image of globalization, as part of your response paper 3. Please note that an "image" may be nearly any visual media: a photograph, film, television show, graphic art, advertisement, fashion, computer icons, and others. Your one- page interpretation should:
(a) identify the source of the image (if possible)
(b) identify the date, time, and location of the image if such context is meaningful (for example, thelocation where you took a photograph, or the newspaper in which a printed advertisement appeared)
(c) using insights from knowledge gathered so far in the course, explain what features, concepts, or dynamics of globalization/underdevelopment you think the image represents. In other words, use this image or set of images as the central focus on your response paper.
As an example, I could focus my analysis on the "chiquitita banana" (taken from my local grocery shop, "Shop-Rite"). This picture relates to several issues discussed in previous lessons including globalization of food, food aid, neoliberalism, structural adjustment programs (remember the examples from the documentary, Life and Debt). So the picture becomes a specific example of broader issues pertaining to globalization and your essay should reflect these broader issues. Another example: the Nike Shoe: what does it represent, what concepts does it evoke - commodity chains, EPZs, etc?
You should endeavor to link your image to more than 3 concepts/issues discussed in the class. The more, the better.
Once you have identified an image, you may send me a half-page summary of the issues you want to discuss, and I will review it for appropriateness and suggestions.
This assignment will be worth 20 points, and graded according to this rubric:
(a) Identification of image(s) and their sources: 5 points.
(b) linkage of images to globalization: 5 points.
(c) linkage of images to themes of globalization and under-development; development theories, etc., as discussed in the course: 10 points.
(d) organization, spelling, grammar: 2 bonus points.
Length: 4 - 5 pages (double-spaced)
References Required: at least 3 scholarly references in addition to the course textbook.
