Purpose
The Institute for the Study of Globalization and Covert Politics is a project that began in 2004 and is occasionally expanded with new articles or updates to articles. The site started out as an attempt to analyze the various establishments of the western world and to see how they interact with both each other and national governments. More and more research on various key conspiracies and the control networks surrounding them was added over the years.
ISGP has been extremely successful in making this information available in an honest, relatively easy-to-digest manner. However, over the years the site has been unsuccessful in getting the word out due to tremendous amounts of censorship from not just the mainstream media, but also all corners of the "alternative" media, and eventually Google and other search engines.
Scoops and unique projects
For a list of unique documents first published by ISGP over the years, a separate page has created. For the rest, ISGP has been a unique project for some of the following reasons. ISGP:
- put together a list of about 1,500 important NGOs and the key persons who form an international "permanent establishment", organized in a new Superclass Index.
In the recent past not even a dozen of these organizations were mentioned on one site or in one book, let alone studied to any significant degree. Thus also no one ever produced a list based on the amount of significant NGOs persons have been involved in over the course of their lives. One would think this to be quite a blind spot whenever research in establishments has to be carried out. - created the "three-and-four-establishment models" and the Boxes Models for Politics and Conspiracy, which enormously help in explaining how establishments operate and how conspiracies can happen, as well as explain who are the key persons involved in them.
- produced the first detailed oversights showing how "liberal CIA" and "conservative CIA" foundations finance almost all aspects of what the public perceives as "independent" "anti-establishment" news outlets and street protest groups, most notably in the feminism and LGBTQ, global warming and Third World immigration domains.
- detailed how "liberal CIA" and "conservative CIA"-funded "activism" extends to all famous Hollywood actors
- detailed how Silicon Valley and the entertainment industry is part of the globalist cartel, both with very rigid opinions.
- produced very detailed articles on Coast to Coast AM, the Alex Jones Show, and 9/11 "Truth", providing clear evidence that the gatekeepers of the conspiracy media are tied in with the security services and are doing little more than providing the public with a steady stream of disinformation.
- produced the highly-unique Media Psywar Manual and the White Guilt Warfare Manual, by looking how the government and media manipulate public opinion regarding conspiracy and anti-Third World immigration thinking.
- published the first detailed articles on the Pilgrims Society and the 1001 Club, based on never before seen membership lists of both groups.
As a result of publishing the 1001 Club membership lists, this group appeared on the evening news for probably the first time in almost 40 years. The information also made its way into a new biography of Prince Bernhard. - wrote the first extensive articles on Le Cercle Pinay, a private transnational security group that has existed since the early 1950s. Later on, it was also the first to publish photocopies of membership lists of Le Cercle.
- was the first to publish an extensive article about the American Security Council, which included a list of over 200 historical board members.
- wrote very unique articles about the Sun Valley Meetings, the Bohemian Grove, the Association of Former Intelligence Officers, the OSS Society, USAPs, and the JASON Group.
- produced by far the most detailed and in-depth article on all aspects of 9/11.
- produced the first article on the JFK assassination which quite uniquely and indisputably explains why there was a cover up and who was behind it.
- produced the most detailed article on the history of ISIS.
- still has the best article, which the most amount of data, on the Peak Oil phenomenon.
- published and translated many Belgian judicial documents: the Dutroux X-Dossiers, various documents related to the X-Dossiers, and the ATLAS Dossier.
- briefly described Russia's establishments, including the most significant think tanks, societies and conferences. This aspect was never published in great detail due to a lack of time and funding to finish up a 50,000 word article.
- put together a list of over 400 curious seemingly politically-motivated deaths worldwide, the names gathered from years of research into this area.
All articles on ISGP were written by Joël van der Reijden, with about half a dozen contributors - some of whom professional investigative journalists - who provided absolutely essential documentation.
History
The information has been gathered systematically since early-2004 and the first articles were ready in May 2005. The ISGP website - under the name Project for the Exposure of Hidden Institutions (PEHI) - was created in July 2005 and began to count visitors several months later, on October 1. After having reached 150,000 individual visits in May 2007, the site was transferred to www.pehi.eu.
In July 2008 the site's name changed to Institute for the Study of Globalization and Covert Politics (ISGP) to better reflect the site's serious and professional nature. Alternately ISGP can stand for Institute for the Study of Globalization and Parapolitics (ISGP), but at this point the term "parapolitics" is still too obscure. The url changed from pehi.eu to isgp.eu. At this point the site had reached just over 500,000 total page loads and 296,000 unique visitors, with a daily average of just below 300 unique visitors.
In 2008 several volunteers provided the site with membership lists of the Pilgrims and 1001 Club, more information on Le Cercle, and more perspective on information contained within the Belgian X-Dossiers. Various articles were written based on this new information.
ISGP largely went inactive after the November 2008 publication of David Teacher's book. This remained the case throughout 2009. Shorter articles were added in 2010, until the site was taken down in September of that year, mainly due to financial reasons.
From August 2012 to November 2014 many updates were made and articles written at the primary location where ISGP was backed-up: Wikispooks.com. The four-establishment model was introduced, as well as an index of private institutes and influential names. Articles appeared on the American Security Council, the OSS Society, the AFIO, Dutch and French child abuse networks, Russian elites, the non-independence of major alternative radio shows and authors, and highly stigmatized (which has a purpose) topics as the John F. Kennedy assassination and 9/11. It's the last thing I would have wanted to be associated with, but these subjects had to be discussed the proper way. In my opinion this has either not or hardly been done before.
In December 2014 ISGP was moved back to a regular url: ISGP.nl. The site was also redesigned from the ground up, vastly improving on looks from the 2005-early 2014 period and the mid to December 2014 look. Numerous major articles were also finished in the year 2014, a lot dealing with disinformation in the alternative media, most notably surrounding the huge radio show Coast to Coast AM.
In 2015 site design was further improved, the Coast to Coast AM article was hugely expanded, with also numerous updates being made to all the 9/11 material. Site improvements and 9/11 updating continued into 2016.
In early August 2016 ISGP.nl was moved to what hopefully is its final domain: ISGP-Studies.com. The main additions in 2016 - but by no means all - were articles on Alex Jones, the Pim Fortuyn assassination, crop circle disinformation, and the concept of "liberal CIA" and its network of NGOs, media outlets and action groups.
2017 saw the addition of "liberal CIA" foundations in relation to the financing of "grassroots" anti-Trump activism and pro-Third World immigration propaganda, as well as Google censorship. September saw the creation of ISGP's Center for Responsible Immigration. October saw a very lengthy article on psychedelics and elitism, which similarly is linked to the "liberal CIA" network. Earlier in the year an extensive article on the rise of ISIS was finished.
In early 2019 the first incarnation of the "conservative CIA" article and oversight was made available. This really set the stage for continuous and relatively easy updating whenever a new kind of prominent activist group emerged in society - because almost invariably they have a "liberal CIA" or "conservative CIA" support network in the background.
In the 2020-2024 period this author was mainly working on the "basics", with articles being published on the CFR, Trilateral, Bilderberg, Davos, and also the "Davos of the 1920s and 1930s": the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). With some help, the NGO oversight was expanded from about 1,500 NGOs to about 2,000, also leading to a great expansion of the superclass index. Dedicated articles on the boxes models and establishment models were created, and the intro article was slowly revamped.
Time invested 2003-2024
The author likes to keep track of the following data for himself, because ISGP has always been a numbers game from the start, as in "Am I going to do this right or not?" Half the hours invested means ISGP is at a certain level by the time the author is 80 instead of 40-years-old. If ISGP was done in a traditional way, meaning a social life-ruining 3 hours a day next to a tiring full-time job, ISGP would probably be around 15-20% of what it is today, and wouldn't be anywhere at the level it is today either (including unpublished projects and material) until the author would be around 180-years-old. The constant interruptions and continued mental tiredness of a full day's work and travel would guarantee tremendous slowdowns and a perpetual low quality of life.
| Total invested time: | 42,000 hours | Over a 20 year period, coming to about 36 hours a week, or 5.5 hours a day. Considering there were some college years in this, some actual full-time work years, and some parallel projects that will be (deeper) linked to ISGP some day, and it should be clear that 14 to 16 hours a day, 7 days a week, has been the norm whenever possible. A Ph.D. degree, which is focused on advancing knowledge, takes a max of about 7,000 hours of actual dedicated research to receive (and I've universally seen low quality to "pretty decent" Ph.D. dissertations/books in the field of "supranational politics" - which don't come close to my total work), so I guess that means I can award myself 7 Ph.D.'s. |
| Total word count: | 1,600,000 | Approximately, without taking into account text from sources, membership lists and biographies, and a few outside articles/books. A paperback often has about 280 words per page, so that would be about 14 400 page books. |
| Unique visitors: | 3,000,000 | From January 2005 to August 2023. This has become a total joke though beginning in 2015 with the first systematic Google censorship bullying, resulting in a virtual ban from the search engine by 2016. Even before that there was a lot of censorship, but at least Google's ranking system wasn't purely based on what Google thinks it should be. Since mid 2023, I don't bother tracking visitors anymore due to Statcounter, in my case, not working with content security policy. I can tell how heavy the censorship is though based on the lack of feedback, donations, and maybe an annual glance at webhost statistics. |

Contact
Guidelines for contacting as of 2024:
There is an army of disinformers active online when it comes to conspiracy matters, always trying to convince you of false theories or trying to make you quit, or persuade you, in various devious ways, to "get in line" behind various "authorities". Therefore, some guidelines:
- Genuine feedback is always welcome and appreciated: from impressions to spotted typos or other issues.
- If you have 1 or 2 basic questions, or some useful information, you can always email. You usually know yourself when something is interesting enough to reply.
- If you have a lenghty list of political or personal questions on top of what I make freely available, or want to engage in debate, that is fine -- but do contribute to the site in those cases and donate in proportion to the amount of questions that you have. 5 euros per basic question is a good ballpark number. It's mainly used to pay for hosting costs.
- Once positive rapport is build, additional donations may not be necessary anymore for follow-up questions. It depends on the situation.
