Analysis: Mexico drug war startles some tourists, not investors | Reuters: "Foreign visitors spent $11.9 billion last year, up just 5 percent from 2009 when the global economic crisis took its toll and down more than 10 percent from $13.3 billion in 2008.
Still, investors continue to make long-term bets on Mexico's famed beaches, picturesque colonial towns and other tourist attractions."

I monitor and analyze international press on Mexico, with a focus on security, immigration, human rights and social movements for peace and justice, from a feminist perspective. And sometimes I simply muse.
