Life and Debt

Good Morning and Happy Friday.  In sticking with our semester long plan, today we are going to begin watching a film entitled Life and Debt.  This documentary takes a close look at the effects of globalization on the Jamaican industry and agriculture specifically but also gives some insight into what other small countries like Jamaica might be facing.

For today's blog, and in preparation for watching today's video, please do a quick internet search and define what "Globalization" is.  Based on the definition you find, describe whether you think Globalization is a good thing or bad thing.

Please also take a moment to look up the IMF.  What is the IMF?  What is their overall goal as an organization?

These concepts WILL help you better understand "Life and Debt"
