Grubačić is a professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies and founded its Anthropology and Social Change department. Grubačić edits the Journal of World-Systems Research. He is an affiliated Faculty in Residence with the UC Berkeley Center for Social Medicine. After the premature death of his friend and colleague David Graeber, Grubacic remains one of the very few prominent exponents of the anarchist anthropology research perspective, and his Center in San Francisco is the only academic institute in the United States dedicated exclusively to the study of anarchist anthropology Living at the Edges of Capitalism, which Grubačić co-authored with Denis O'Hearn, won the 2017 American Sociological Association's Political Economy of the World-System Book Award.

His work is a synthesis of Braudelian history, Hegelian Marxism, and anarchist anthropology of Peter Kropotkin. Together with John Holloway and several other dissident academics, Grubacic has assembled a global federation of activist scholars and academic programs "inhabiting the cracks in academia".

He is a member of Retort collective, and has participated in grassroots alter-globalization movement and has supported international projects in Yugoslavia and Rojava. Since 2012, he has been writing about the revolution in Rojava and the imprisoned Kurdish leader Abdullah Ocalan. As a professor at the University of Rojava, and social science editor at PM Press, he is responsible for a number of books on Kurdish struggle published in English language.
