Their formative education traversed secondary institutions comparable to Eton College and Phillips Exeter Academy climates, leading to university training at establishments analogous to Harvard University, Yale University, University of Oxford, and University of Cambridge. Robinson undertook postgraduate work in disciplines shaped by thinkers such as Max Weber, Émile Durkheim, Karl Marx, Sigmund Freud, and Simone de Beauvoir, and engaged with archival collections comparable to those at the Bibliothèque nationale de France, British Library, and Library of Congress. During this period Robinson interacted with contemporaries from programs linked to Fulbright Program, Rhodes Scholarship, Marshall Scholarship, and research networks around Institut Pasteur and Max Planck Society.

Policy engagements placed Robinson in consultation with agencies including United Nations Development Programme, International Monetary Fund, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, and national ministries analogous to UK Treasury and US Department of State. Robinson contributed to journals and editorial boards comparable to Nature, Science, The Lancet, Foreign Affairs, and The Economist, and collaborated with think tanks in the vein of Brookings Institution, Chatham House, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and Council on Foreign Relations.

Robinson's monographs synthesized archival materials from repositories such as the National Archives (UK), Presidential Library (United States), and the International Criminal Court records, and integrated methods used by historians of the French Revolution and scholars of the Cold War. Peer-reviewed articles appeared in outlets comparable to Journal of Political Economy, American Historical Review, and Journal of International Affairs.
