Neema Parvini is a British-Iranian academic, currently a senior fellow at the Centre of Heterodox Studies at the University of Buckingham.[1] He has worked at Richmond, The American International University in London,[2] Brunel University,[3] Royal Holloway, and the University of Surrey.

His books on Shakespeare mainly discuss the influence of the New historicism, cognitive approaches to Shakespeare studies, and ethical thinking in Shakespeare's works. He has written for the website Quillette,[4] as well as the Ludwig von Mises Institute,[5] and has spoken at the think tank Traditional Britain.[6] Parvini is a member of the Heterodox Academy and the Evolution Institute, and attended that Battle of Ideas event run by the Institute of Art and Ideas.[7] He is a Senior Fellow at the Centre for Heterodox Social Science.[8]

Parvini discusses political theories on the rule of elites on his YouTube channel, "Academic Agent".[9]

In Bournbrook Magazine, Alexander Adams describes Parvini's book The Populist Delusion as "an informative, succinctly-written and accessible handbook for those who wish to understand the core principles of elite theory discussed by reactionaries and the dissident right".[9]

In 2024 the advocacy group Hope not Hate described his views as "extreme" and aligned with the "scientific racist community".[10][11]
