"Per Högselius's new book is a tour de force, a much-needed overview of the manifold connections between energy and geopolitics, and a major addition to the field. Energy and Geopolitics is written in a lively and accessible prose style with a multitude of cases and examples, which makes it a perfect guide for students as well as the general reader." - Thane Gustafson, Georgetown University, USA "The transition to a more sustainable energy system is not only about increasing the share of renewables, but also about geopolitics. This book beautifully unravels the different dimensions in the relations between energy and geopolitics, in the past, now and - for better or worse - in the future." - Geert Verbong, Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands "A highly innovative and refreshing take on energy geopolitics. Högselius's analysis challenges conventional understandings of energy geopolitics as confined to the realm of fossil fuels and 'high' politics and security. The book masterly shows the connections between various energy systems, renewable and non-renewable, and other aspects of the world's eco- and social-systems." - Margarita M.

Balmaceda, Seton Hall University and Harvard University, USA " Energy and Geopolitics is an innovative study that stands out for its global scope; its inclusion of coal, hydropower, nuclear power, renewables, and energy infrastructure as well oil and natural gas; and its provocative argument that although the uneven distribution of global energy resources has often been a source of conflict, it can also promote interdependence and lead to cooperation." - David S. Painter, Georgetown University, USA.
