Sign of the times- submit your best Argentina photo and if you win, they'll use your image in their books and on their website for free. That's a good to look for stock for their next book- hook photographers who want to get published, to fill their image needs (which they'd normally pay hundreds or thousands of dollars for the licensing rights). And people wonder why they can't make it as photographers.
Probably why I've never submitted work to contests over my 19 year photo career- published images and/or contests never got me more work, more sales, or more income- it only helps the multi-million dollar companies on the bottom line.

As Sean said. Read the small print. These contests are a way of publications (Fodor's in this case) to build a stock of travel images for free. Pure copyright grab.
There are some good contests out there. This is not one of them.

If you want a photo community, where you can have your own website as well as enroll in contests (where you don't give any rights to your images) and where you can take workshops (where I teach as well), check out BetterPhoto.com
Here's one of my courses on Exposure- thanks!
