- Raghavan Iyer, for whom parapolitics is a method of rethinking the foundations and frontiers of political principles, systems, and issues.
- Peter Dale Scott, who uses the term parapolitics as one aspect of his theory of "deep politics".
- Lobster, a UK magazine focused on how politics has been influenced by intelligence and security services.
