Paradigm Research Group
Paradigm Research Group was
established in early 1996 by
Stephen Bassett,
a political activist and consultant, to advocate in all ways possible for an
end to a government imposed truth embargo of the facts surrounding an
extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race. In addition,
PRG would provide support to researchers and political
activists throughout the world in the field of extraterrestrial-related phenomena
research.
Accordingly, "Research Group" refers to this loose confederation of research and
activist clients. Support consists of the following:
| 1) |
Political consulting and
registered lobbying of the executive and legislative branches of government. |
| 2) |
Creating and presenting fund raising proposals
for research/activist projects and organizations. |
| 3) |
Liaison with Washington, DC based and national
media. |
| 4) |
Secondary research utilizing Washington based
resources such as the Library of Congress & National Archives. |
| 5) |
Advance work for Washington based meetings and
press conferences. |
| 6) |
Interface to other research organizations and
projects. |
| 7) |
Creation of a website, The Paradigm Clock,
dedicated to extraterrestrial related phenomena researchers and their past, present and
future efforts. |
Paradigm Research Group is committed to the full
disclosure of information by all holding parties and to the further
professionalizing of
the ongoing research effort. In that regard it supports the following positions on certain
key issues:
| 1) |
Normalization
of the political dialogue and scientific rhetoric in order to facilitate engagement with
reluctant but honest, reasonable members of the mainstream governmental and scientific
community. |
| 2) |
Proactive support by the general
extraterrestrial phenomena research/activist community of the
ongoing efforts to bring about an open, comprehensive Congressional
hearings to take testimony from current and former government
employees, said testimony to be under immunity by means of a waiver of any national security oath
or other non-disclosure agreements. |
| 3) |
Beyond witness
immunity, broad support for extension by law or executive order of amnesty to all
government and contract employees for any and all misdeeds, not involving violence to
persons, relating to the U. S. government’s actions, posture and statements regarding
extraterrestrial phenomena since 1945. |
|
4) |
Commitment by the research/activist community as a whole to extend and strengthen current coalitions and national
networks in order to: |
|
a) |
insure that all evidence from all
sources is given proper consideration. |
|
b) |
enhance the ability to obtain
independent financing and media coverage. |
|
c) |
help counter
the inevitable effort by mainstream institutions to co-opt in the
post-paradigm world the work of the
research/activist community since 1947. |
|
d) |
build a foundation for the
post-paradigm work to follow. |
| 5) |
Continued upgrading of
the quality of the science and the standards by which scientific evidence is reviewed. |
