David Harvey reading Marx Capital – the critique of the liberal notion of freedom

"The value character of the products of labour becomes firmly established only when they act as magnitudes of value. These magnitudes vary continually, independently of the will for knowledge and actions of the exchanges. Their own movement within the society has for them the form of a movement made by things, and these things far from being under their control, in fact control them."

Karl Marx, Capital Volume I, commodity fetishism
