Prof. Dubarry's research centers on the comparative analysis of legal systems, particularly focusing on the relationship between French civil law and other civil law traditions. His work emphasizes how legal systems can no longer be considered in isolation, making comparative analysis a central component of modern legal scholarship. His expertise spans French civil law, German civil law (BGB), Austrian civil law (ABGB), and the theoretical foundations that connect these systems.
His recent publications reflect a strong commitment to legal education and cross-border legal understanding. The 2024 textbook 'Introduction to French Law' provides a comprehensive overview of the French legal system for German-speaking audiences, while his 2025 work 'À la découverte du droit' serves as a foundational legal primer. These works demonstrate his dedication to making French legal concepts accessible while maintaining academic rigor according to French standards.
Prof. Dubarry actively engages with contemporary legal challenges, as evidenced by his 2020 statement on the relationship between medicine and law during the Covid-19 pandemic. His February 2025 announcement regarding Advanced Civil Law Exercises demonstrates his ongoing commitment to legal education. His work at the Franco-German Legal Centre facilitates important academic exchange between French and German legal scholars, strengthening cross-border legal understanding in Europe.
