Harry Hobbs and George Williams are two Australian legal academics who have collaborated as micropatriologists. In 2021, they published a book-length study of the relationship between micronations and mainstream international law and politics, Micronations and the Search for Sovereignty. Their separate research interests do not include micropatriology.

Views

Hobbs and Williams have argued that an Australian cultural value of mischievous irreverence is a key causal factor in the high numbers of micronations in the region (alongside geographical isolation and a relaxed state approach to micronations).[1][2]
