Robert specialises in South Australian Aboriginal History as well as comparative Indigenous History. For more than a decade he has collaborated with Amanda Nettelbeck on a project investigating the history and memory of the Australian frontier. Their book Fatal Collisions: The South Australian Frontier and the Violence of Memory, co-authored Rick Hosking, won the John Tregenza prize for South Australian History in 2002 and was short-listed for the NSW Premier's Prize for Literature. In the Name of the Law: William Willshire and the Policing of the Australian Frontier, published in 2007, was described by a reviewer in Australian Historical Studies as an 'outstanding study', demonstrating 'to a degree unprecedented in the scholarship on the frontier ... how policing worked during the transition from contested sovereignty over Aboriginal land to the establishment of government authority ... a book that deserves to be on the reading list of any guide to essential reading in Australian history'. Out of the Silence: The History and Memory of South Australia's Frontier Wars, published in 2012, is the first comprehensive study of the nature and extent of frontier violence in colonial South Australia.

Robert and Amanda Nettelbeck, with partner investigators Professor Russell Smandych of the University of Manitoba and Emeritus Professor Lou Knafla of the University of Calgary, are currently involved in a project which is exploring the establishment of European authority on the frontiers of Australia and western Canada. A monograph, tentatively entitled Fragile Settlements, will be published by the University of British Columbia Press in 2014.

In 2011 Robert and his colleague Paul Sendziuk organised a public lecture series to co-incide with South Australia's 175th anniversary of European settlement. It was an extremely popular public event and the lectures were published as a book, Turning Points: Chapters in South Australian History, in 2012. Robert and his colleague Paul Sendziuk are also writing a History of South Australia, which will be published by Cambridge University Press in 2014.
