According to the official website, “The Tavistock Institute for Human Relations is an independent commercial organization established in 1947. The organization focuses on the practical application of social sciences and research in various fields, including government, industry, commerce, health care, education … Clients of the Tavistock Institute are various organizations - from large enterprises to small community groups at national and international level.” Hermann Mairen's documentary highlights the "dark side" of one of the most mysterious organizations of the 20th century and today.
The Tavistock Institute has been one of the most influential groups of the last 50 years. Under the guise of a non-profit organization, it is arguably one of the most important centers for social research on brainwashing in history. It is a complex organization that intends to change the paradigm of modern society and is closely associated with such mysterious groups as Bilderberg or the Club of Rome. In this film, we will tell you about the history of the Tavistock Institute and try to show how its activities affect our lives with you, forcing us to reconsider the existing concept of freedom.
Creation of the Tavistock Institute
The Tavistock Institute was created in 1947 in London on the basis of the clinic of the same name, when Herbrand Arthur Russell handed over to a group of physicians, consisting mainly of psychologists, a separate building in the city center for research work. Subordinate to the British Armed Forces, the clinic initially specialized in research on the post-traumatic effects of bomb attacks on British WWI veterans. The main goal in these studies was to identify the limit of human endurance, after which psychological disorder is inevitable. However, the available evidence suggests that these studies went far beyond conventional scientific experimentation.and at some point they even laid the foundation for clinical experiments to study the influence of mass terror as a result of the massive bombing of civilians by the Roosevelt and Churchill administrations. The main idea was to observe the reaction of citizens in an extremely stressful situation and to identify the endurance limit at which a person completely loses the ability to resist.
In 1947, thanks to a private investment from the Rockefeller Foundation, the Tavistock Clinic changed its name to become the Tavistock Institute for Human Relations. Thus, the institute actually ceased to fulfill the responsibilities assigned to it by the national ministry, becoming a self-financed organization in the interests of the Rockefeller family.
Tavistock was one of hundreds of similar centers. Two of these organizations can be distinguished in the United States - the Office of Strategic Services (later reorganized into the CIA) and the Harvard Psychological Clinic. The latter was headed by Kurt Levin. It was within the walls of this clinic that a campaign was developed that changed the way Americans view Germany, ultimately pushing the United States to participate in World War II.

Developments in the field of control over the working class
Step by step, the influence of the Tavistock Institute grew. In less than 10 years, the Rockefellers managed to create a whole network of labor institutions, including the Department of Labor. They used them to establish physical and psychological control over the labor movement throughout the United States.
In these centers, several methods were developed for sabotaging strikes, introducing agents into trade unions and implementing aggressive plans against the working class. The original goal was almost achieved - to establish control over the population in order to implement the necessary changes, as well as bring the United States into the lead, taking the place of Great Britain - the main world power at that time.
The next goal was to establish a New World Order, in which the population of the entire planet becomes obedient and ruled by a minority.
For this purpose, several guidance documents have been published. For example, “The Behavioral Theory of Labor Negotiation” by Robert McKersey. They provide step-by-step instructions on negotiating with trade unions, explore in detail the profile and labor characteristics of the individuals of labor workers' associations. And all of this is done to help businesses achieve a tactical advantage even before strikes start.
In the early years, to increase the productivity of work aimed at self-motivated destruction of the human ego, the institute applied the theories of Sigmund Freud regarding the unconscious. The idea was to create more brainwashed people, a kind of zombie, who would be satisfied with living conditions on the verge of hunger and would not be outraged by the gradually deteriorating working conditions and wages.
Management training
At the same time, Tavistock trained future world leaders by training them in brainwashing and mass control techniques to later use these skills around the world. One such leader was Henry Kissinger, a refugee from Germany and a former student of Sir John Rawlins Reese, the most influential director of the Tavistock Institute ever to serve. Kissinger's rapid career growth (one of the influential members of the Bilderberg Club) cannot be explained by other reasons.

Another such example is the figure of Jimmy Carter. Tavistock Institute psychologist Peter Byrne chose him. Carter was destined to become president of the United States only because at one time he participated in a brainwashing program in Annapolis, Maryland.
The Tavistock Institute is so powerful in the United States that no one would ever think of not joining one of its behavioral science programs. The Institute plays a fundamental role in establishing the New World Order. Its director and also the first president and director of the World Federation for Mental Health, John Rowling Reese, said:
Under the leadership of Kurt Lewin, the Tavistock Institute pioneered the use of trauma to reprogram people. As a result, a person can be reprogrammed through the introduction of new memory and mental sensations, given by the person or group of people who control his behavior. The main goal of all these methods is to promote the development of homogeneity of the human mass and destroy human individuality, because it is individuality that is the most important obstacle to the establishment of a New World Order. The idea is to create a crowd of people whose behavior is easily predictable, a mass that obeys orders without any objection or question, to destroy human willpower so that they cannot resist the dictators of the New World Order.

Based on this idea, the Tavistock Institute is developing new tools for brainwashing, establishing mass control. Rock and roll and drugs are one of these tools.
Sex, drugs and rock and roll
In 1939, Theodore Adorno was asked to visit the United States to lead one of the research projects carried out at Princeton Radio. It was a collaborative project developed by the Tavistock Institute with the aim of finding an effective method for managing the masses through music. This required the power of rock and roll, just as the Nazis used radio propaganda as a brainwashing tool. The Nazis successfully used radio to spread their views around the world. To this end, for example, Germany actively encouraged the mass production and distribution of affordable radio equipment capable of delivering Nazi messages to the home of every German citizen.
Almost simultaneously with this, the Swiss pharmaceutical company Sandoz AG developed a drug called d-lysergic acid diethylamide, better known as LSD. In 1953, the MK-Ultra project was launched by the CIA. The goal of this program was to develop a series of chemical, biological and radiological materials for use in covert operations to control and modify human behavior. The CIA was confident that LSD would provide full access to the human mind, making it possible to remove certain blocks of memory and replace them with specific information.
The first experiments with LSD were carried out by employees of the CIA itself, but the results of studying the effects of the drug on the minds of people used as experimental mice turned out to be deplorable - some of them got sick, and the families of the deceased were paid millions of dollars in compensation from the federal budget. Despite this, no criminal cases were opened, and all documentary evidence of the experiments was subsequently destroyed by the corresponding orders of the director of the MK-Ultra project.
Similar tests have been carried out in Canada. Dr. Even Cameron, Chairman of the Board of the Hospital. Queen Victoria in Montreal received a generous reward from the CIA for leading experiments to inject large doses of LSD into 53 patients and study the reactions of subjects who were pumped with drugs and left to sleep for weeks.
Aldous Huxley, author of Brave New World, said at a conference at California Medical School in San Francisco:
Aldous Huxley.
Huxley was not wrong - the LSD experiments were successful and laid the foundation for the counterculture of the 1960s and the student revolution, which the CIA spent 25 million dollars on organizing. Thousands of university students were used by the CIA as guinea pigs without even knowing it.
Jim Keith, American writer and researcher wrote:
In the winter of 1992, Michael Minnichino explained this in the pages of FIDELIO magazine:
The idea of free love and culture, fostered under the popular hippie slogan “Power to flowers!” Was very revolutionary, although it was in fact the result of pre-planned policies implemented by the Frankfurt School prior to 1920.
One of such experiments was tested in the commune of Ascona (Switzerland). Even Tom Hayden's famous slogan “Do not trust anyone over 30” was nothing more than a paraphrase from Rupert Brook's words, spoken by him back in 1905: “Don't waste your time talking with someone over 30!”.
All this took place against the gray background of the Vietnam War and was characterized by general unrest. The war was used as an excuse to create an anti-war movement, which ultimately resulted in complete despair and mental frustration. As a result, American youth soon became addicted to drugs. Disappointment with the outcome of the war turned protestors into an easily accessible target for those who would benefit from manipulating them with LSD.
The most suitable testing grounds for confirming the effectiveness of new control methods were undoubtedly the large youth festivals, where LSD was given out absolutely free of charge to millions of guinea pigs between 15 and 25 years old. As a result, a new culture of drugs emerged, later called the “new age” culture.
The first of these festivals, the Monterey International Popular Music Festival, took place in 1967. It was a three-day concert at the Monterey County Fairgrounds, California, with about 200,000 young people. This template became a kind of template for future music events like the Woodstock Festival two years later. At such concerts, the victims were isolated, practically cut off from society, being surrounded by mud, stuffing themselves with psychedelic drugs and “disconnecting” for several days. And all this happened with the complicity of the FBI and the highest officials in the government.
Here is what the New York times wrote on August 17:
This warning to “swallow only half a pill” was issued by Vevi Grevy, MK-Ultra's agent.
Drugs, sex, rock 'n' roll, mass protests across the country, hippies, youth communities, marijuana drinkers, the Nixon presidency, the Vietnam War … All of this tore apart American society from the inside. There was a clash between the new and the old world. And at this time, supporters of the policy of "power of flowers" did not even know that everything that was happening was only part of a secret social plan developed by some devilish minds of mankind.
Hidden behind the walls of prestigious foundations, corporations and research centers accountable only to the Rockefeller Foundation, these puppeteers from the world of finance and politics used pop culture to alienate the masses and block social development.
Between 1965 and 1967, the psychedelic movement gained momentum and reached its peak at Woodstock. However, soon after, it disappeared as quickly as it had formed. LSD became old-fashioned, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and later Jim Morrison died. Timothy Leary has disappeared. After losing the Vietnam War, the United States met the 70s with the Great Depression.
The television
But this time too, Tavistock was on the spot, ready to take advantage of the people's apathy for his own benefit. In a very short time, the foundation was laid for conducting silent wars, the so-called "wars with the use of silent types of weapons." Thus, for example, MTV appeared.
The average number of hours spent in front of TV screens grew every day. In the mid-70s, people devoted most of their time to this activity after sleeping and working hours - almost 6 hours a day. Since the beginning of sales of tape recorders and game consoles, this time has grown even more. School-age children spent almost as much time watching TV as they slept.
On August 1, 1981, Robert Pitman begins broadcasting MTV, a television channel that broadcasts music videos and pop music to teen audiences. Today, the channel is owned by the Viacom media empire known as the CBS Corporation. Its President and CEO, Sumner Redstone, is a member of the Bilderberg Club and the Council on Foreign Relations.

In fact, the media corporation follows the method established by yet another Tavistock study. Within a short period of time, the viewer is subjected to an aggressive, yet invisible, brainwashing. He is confident that he has the ability to make a choice - just like a drug addict who stupidly believes that he can control the level of his addiction, when in fact everything happens exactly the opposite.
As a result of several studies carried out by the Tavistock Institute, it was found that since childhood, subconscious connections are created in the head of each person with the songs that they once heard. These connections for a long time remain in a passive, secretive form, but as soon as you hear them again, the memory revives - we are "carried away" into the past, we have a mood of childishness, childish playfulness, we are returned to the feelings that we experienced for the first time hearing this song … But how can TV become a drug?
When we watch TV, the right hemisphere of our brain becomes more active than the left. Switching from the left hemisphere to the right is accompanied by the release of beta-endorphins and enkephalins - both of which belong to the class of endorphins and are known as natural opiates, that is, our body's natural drugs. They have the same structure as opium and its derivatives. In other words, television is nothing more than a high-tech system for the production of drugs, which are no different from other drugs in terms of the level of addiction. At the moment when a large amount of endorphins are injected into our brain, the upper layers of the brain, for example, the medial edge of the new cortex, lose their activity. The limbic system of the brain becomes active - this is an area also known as the reptilian complex,reacts to the environment, responding to exposure with very simple responses deeply embedded in the structure of our DNA. These lower brain regions also cannot separate reality from fiction, because a new cortex - the neocortex - is responsible for this. We react to what is shown on TV as if it were really happening. Studies have shown that over-activity in the lower layers of the brain can cause atrophy in the upper layers.that excessive activity of the lower layers of the brain can cause atrophy of the upper layers.that excessive activity of the lower layers of the brain can cause atrophy of the upper layers.
Frederick Emery, one of the most accomplished social engineers of his generation and a member of the Tavistock Institute, said:
Television is a powerful tool for shaping public opinion and suppressing individual opinion. We perceive what we see on the screen as reality, because most of the people around us hold the same opinion.
Take, for example, news broadcasts replete with countless different images and video footage, such as the setting fire to the flag by the people of the Middle East after the events of 9/11. In fact, we were shown old videos.
Disney cartoons are another prime example. By the way, many of you probably don't know that during World War II Walt Disney and his brother were involved in the production of propaganda films censored by the Tavistock Institute's control department. As Disney himself said, The transformation of adults into easily controllable people is a technique long formulated in Adorno's theories.
Sesame Street
Sesame Street is an educational show created in 1966. The original idea of the authors was to prepare children for school. In fact, a different goal was pursued. Malcolm Gladwell, a spokesman for Tavistock, admitted:
However, there is quite a lot of research that confirms that this show did not contribute in any way to the upbringing of children, and in many cases prevented them from understanding more complex things. Most importantly, the results of these studies show that children become addicted to the show. And this addiction forces them to watch any other TV program.
Neil Postman, a professor at New York University, writes in his book Entertaining Yourself to Death:
The best confirmation of this, as always, is to check the sources of income from the production of the show. It was found that the money comes directly from the Carnegie Foundation, which is also controlled by the Rockefellers. And they receive money from the CIA, the Trilateral Commission (also controlled by the Rockefellers), the Council on Foreign Relations, the Carlyle Group (founded by former US President George W. Bush and former head of the Pentagon Donald Rumsfield), from several lesser-known members of the Ben Laden family and a secret Society of Yale University "Skull and Bones".
Advertising
Of course, an even more attractive area for expanding the Tavistock Institute is advertising, where large corporations literally create trends from scratch to meet needs you don't need.
The clearest example of the brainwashing of adolescents and children is the image of Joe the camel, which at some point became as popular among children as Mickey the mouse. Joe the Camel was invented in 1987 when, on the eve of its 75th anniversary, the manufacturing company was looking for new ideas to rebrand its product. A drawing made in 1974 by a certain Billy Coulton was found in the archives. It was a caricature of the original camel from a pack of cigarettes produced since 1913.
In 1991, the publication of the American Medical Association published an article that confirmed that the new image of the camel was associated with the brand of cigarettes in children as much as the Disney logo reminded them of Mickey the mouse. The manufacturing company claimed that the marketing research, conducted before the start of the advertising campaign, involved adults and focused on smokers buying other brands of cigarettes. However, Joe the Camel remained the brand's emblem for a long time, even when 33% of teenagers illegally preferred Camel cigarettes. The advertising campaign was a huge success and on a subconscious level among children - it managed to associate a fictional character with a brand of cigarettes.
In mid-1997, Camel decided to temporarily suspend its advertising campaign. The pressure on the manufacturing company by the US Congress, community groups and numerous lawsuits played a decisive role.
In addition to the media, we should be mindful of the largest publications, which are also subject to the Bilderberg Club and the Council on Foreign Relations. They focus the reader's attention on specific topics and set the limits for discussion. They can effectively create an unstable media atmosphere on a global scale that is in line with the plans hatched by the proponents of the New World Order.
Thanks to the Tavistock Institute, a theory of social turbulence was developed, according to which public discontent can be mitigated with the help of tools such as creating artificial power shortages, economic and financial crises, and terrorist attacks:
