  Terry Eagleton explains that freedom, for Marx, entailed release from commerciallabour, a kind of creative superabundance over what is materially essential . Eagleton outlines the relationship between production, labour and ownership which lie at the core of Marx's thinking. Marx's utopia was a place in which labour is increasingly automated, emancipating the wealth of sensuous individualdevelopment so that savouring a peach [is an aspect] of our self-actualisation as much as building dams .
