Freedom is the highest principle of the meaning of life, and captured with the living. One of the mankinds oldest dreams is that outstand from the endless working and have the well-being life that full of happiness and leisure. Therefore, philosophers do the efforts to pursuit freedom. Time is the premise of existence and development, how to find and realize the freedom? Thinking it from the time dimension is very important. Different understanding of time is directly related to the differences ways of Liberal demands. Western philosophers always thinking it from the concept of natural time and life time, but the real freedom can't be find out. The way to solve the contradiction between freedom and the time should be put on the social time that in the Marxist view. Marxism is concerned about the reality of society, the freedom of reality (as distinct from the freedom of consciousness and the freedom of will), analysis its on the community structure—free time and labor time: from the sense of origin, labor lead people's freedom possibly, and people have the ability to experience the freedom of self-evidence and happiness when they work daily, but because the emergence of the division and the development of private ownership lead the alienation of human labor, unfortunately, people felt the pain. Marxist study on capitalism's law of social development and found that people are not free because of the confrontation between free time and working hours. To achieve freedom, the need for free time and working hours to be abandoning the opposition, by making the reality of revolutionary, resulting from the elimination of confrontation between the reality and the root causes of social conditions, that is, private ownership, more accurate to say that the capitalist private ownership.Marx's understanding of freedom is a deepening processing, at an early stage by the impact of Hegel's philosophy, his understanding of freedom full of the sense of freedom, then, he has not analysis the free on the perspective of the practice, of course, freedom can not take into account the relationship between time and freedom, based on such an understanding of it, Marx began to pay attention to practical freedom, such as freedom of the press, political freedom, the understanding of freedom at this time only in its infancy, Marx found that political on politics, freedom can not be achieved, civil society is the real birthplace of the historical, so he turned to economic research, on the basis of freedom of materialism and the study on economy, he found the confrontation of free time and working hours, that is, labor is still a means to earn a living, not from external mandatory liberate, not the freedom of the performance of the most prominent is the lack of free time, workers of non-working hours in addition to the restoration of physical and for the reproduction of human beings there is no free time outside, it is free of the most fundamental way is to increase the worker's free time. If the economy is the basis of political, then I think the time is the basis of the economy, because the time scale is a measure of value is the value of the formation of one of the most basic elements. Marx found that, in the framework of the social system of capitalism, the capital of nature can not be free to the workers, but capitalism has created its own gravedigger and is free to create a great material wealth, through the communist movement, the elimination of private ownership, through the productive forces and production relations campaign to renounce the alienation of labor conflicts and the root causes of the alienation of labor, it is the domination of their own free time. Freedom can be true. Under the Marxist concept of freedom, we analysis its practical significance, and give out the way to increase free time under actual situation in China.
