Resumo:This article aims to contemplate the phenomenology of globalization, conceived as the intrinsic process of interconnection of nation-states in the political, economic, and sociocultural domains, and its implications on the fabric of social life. In this context, an analysis is proposed regarding the instrumentalization of globalization as a mechanism for perpetuating "coloniality" (Quijano, 2005) within the context of the Guinean nation-state. A bibliographical methodological approach will be employed, based on a qualitative perspective, as a skillful strategy for collecting data from various documentary sources, such as literary works, academic essays, dissertations, theses, periodicals, and newspapers. It is concluded that the Guinean nation-state cannot progress in isolation from the global panorama and contemporary financial context; instead, it requires a new dynamic approach that enables it to strategically position itself and capitalize on the interactions facilitated by globalization, aiming to strengthen itself internally and free itself from potential attempts of recolonization.
