"As we have seen, for Marx a social world dominated by commodities and
money necessarily involves an all too real, if impersonal, form of coercion.
The goods and services required to address human needs must take the form
of commodities. Producers must exchange their output for money. Agents
must obtain money in order to gain access to goods and services. As a result,
commodities and money become things with power over human subjects, like the fetish objects of a supposedly distant past. The circulation of these alien
things becomes the mode in which human sociality (in the historically specific
form of dissociated sociality) is expressed. That, at any rate, is the Marxian view."
