Abstract

The article examines, from the viewpoint of their usefulness for teaching globalization phenomenon, the documentaries ‘Maquilápolis’, ‘Capitalism: a love story’ and ‘Inside Job’. These are watched and discussed, by the author and his students of Sociology, in order to further their knowledge and critical skills before globalization. The analysis of such documentaries reveals how, beyond their specific approaches to the effects of globalization, they show certain agreements in their identifications of problems or processes related to these effects.
