Le portail rinoceros d’informations sur les initiatives citoyennes pour la construction d’un autre monde a été intégré au nouveau site Ritimo pour une recherche simplifiée et élargie.
Ce site (http://www.rinoceros.org/) constitue une archive des articles publiés avant 2008 qui n'ont pas été transférés.

Aiding, trading or abetting : the future of trade, aid and security
Designing trade policies that diminish the likelihood or longevity of violent conflict is a critical task for the international community.

Delivering the 2010 target : financing universal access to HIV and AIDS treatment

emerging from this implementation.
Eventually the implementation of a CTT depends on the political will and especially
the pressure by the global justice movement on governments and decision makers. The
technical feasibility of a sound project does not ensure its implementation, as politics are
shaped by interest groups and power struggles. However, this study shows that there are
no more formal, legal or technical excuses behind which opponents or hesitant supporters
of a CTT can hide.
