"Partial Hegemony is a major and original contribution to international relations theory. Jeff Colgan uses his new conceptualizations of subsystems and partial hegemony in an enlightening analysis of oil politics since the 1970s and a cogent argument for climate clubs to enforce emissions limitations in this decade."
— Robert O. Keohane, Professor of International Affairs (Emeritus), Princeton University

"Employing a wide-angle lens, Colgan reconceptualizes international order, unabashedly paving a novel framework for power dynamics and systems change. Colgan's analysis provides important insights not only for understanding oil politics, but also for interpreting how efforts to address emerging developments like climate change and the escalating US-China rivalry could influence international affairs."
— Alice C. Hill, David M. Rubenstein Senior Fellow for Energy and the Environment, Council on Foreign Relations
