DOI: 10.1177/0961463X07080259 © 2007 SAGE Publications Time in the Age of ComplexityCentre for Mobilities Research (CeMoRe) in the Sociology Department at Lancaster University, k.dennis1{at}lancaster.ac.uk Technically mediated forms of interconnectivity and communication are sustaining complex arrangements through which are emerging more dynamic and interdependent physical-digital relations. This article examines the intensification of time through the lens of complexity theory and argues that increasingly networked infrastructures are moving towards an integrated global complexity in real-time. I suggest that shifts in physical-digital temporality are having a significant effect upon how the `social' is being reconfigured.
Key Words: complexity ICTs networks real-time
