This chapter is part of a book which presents a collection of exploratory ideas and offers an understanding of buildings, people and settlements through concepts of flow.
The author of 'Controlling flow' aims to argue that in the realm of global capitalism there is 'administration' of time-space through logistics: namely the practical, material realization of control and order. As a means to investigate how the logistical ordering and management of time-space works, the author briefly considers the organization of shipping container movements through the time-space of London Thamesport in Kent, Uk.
