Dr Harry Hobbs is an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Law and Justice at the University of New South Wales. Harry's primary research interests are in public law and the rights of Indigenous peoples. He holds an ARC Discovery Early Career Research Award, where he is investigating Indigenous - State treaty-making in Canada and Aotearoa New Zealand to identify lessons for modern treaty-making processes in Australia. He has written widely on treaty in leading Australian and international law journals, such as the Sydney Law Review and the University of Toronto Law Journal, as well as more broadly on constitutional law, legal reform, human rights, transitional justice, and international criminal law.

Alongside this work, Harry is examining the phenomenon of micronations and the growth of sovereign citizens and pseudolaw adherents in Australia and their impact on the administration of justice. He has published several books on micronations (including Micronations and the Search for Sovereignty and How To Rule Your Own Country), and recently led an empirical study into the phenomenon of sovereign citizens in South Australia. Harry regularly discusses this work with judicial officers and on TV, radio and in print. His most recent book is Pseudolaw and Sovereign Citizens (Hart, 2025).
