The MexicoBlog of the Americas Program, a fiscally sponsored program of the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR), is written by Laura Carlsen. 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.

Drug War and Human Rights Abuses: Complaint Over Calderón Is Filed With Hague Court
NYTimes.com: "A Mexican human rights lawyer, Netzaí Sandoval, filed a complaint on Friday against President Felipe Calderón with the International Criminal Court in The Hague, claiming that Mr. Calderón covered up and tolerated war crimes and crimes against humanity. The document, signed by 23,000 Mexicans, also accuses organized crime syndicates, Public Security Minister Genaro García Luna, and the country’s army and navy of partaking in the “systematic repetition” of abuses against civilians."
