Overview
POSTPONED
Brutal drug cartels, swine flu and a crippling global recession all conspired to make the last two years an especially challenging period for America's neighbor to the south. Mexico still faces a series of unenviable problems, but there are also reasons for optimism. Entering the second half of its six-year term, the Calderon administration has scored some wins in its conflict with drug traffickers, the economy is showing signs of life and a long-gridlocked political establishment is at least starting to talk about the possibility of needed reforms.
