The 666-page Bilderberg Club thesis sparking controversy in Spain

A doctoral thesis presented in 2017 at the University of Seville analyses the interconnections between socio-political and commercial power and the media through the Bilderberg Club, covering the period from 1954 to 2016. Its author, Cristina Martín Jiménez, supervised by professor Ramón Reig, includes appendices with attendee lists, CIA documents and historical archives. However, the work has raised eyebrows: it has exactly 666 pages, the author is said to have links to Opus Dei, and some critics call it a fraud or even suspect it was generated by artificial intelligence.

A structural analysis of global power
The thesis takes a structural approach to mapping the connections between media conglomerates such as Viacom-CBS, Bertelsmann and News Corporation and their presence at Bilderberg Club meetings. Among the appendices are an inventory of official documents from the National Archives of the Netherlands and the CIA doctrinal document PSB D-33-2. The two-volume research promises to be the most complete work on the subject in Spanish.

The shadows of controversy
The number 666 has been flagged as an esoteric wink, though it is probably a coincidence. More troubling is the accusation that the author is close to Opus Dei, which some say undermines the work's independence. Its methodological rigour has also been questioned, with some even suggesting it may have been produced using AI. The academic community has made no official statement.

Everything suggests that the thesis, available online, will continue to fuel the debate between those who see Bilderberg as a world-planning elite and those who consider such research mere conspiracy theories. The material is available, but the interpretation remains open.
