Abstract: Abstract Karl Heinrich Marx (1818–1883) was born in Trier, Germany, in a Jewish family that converted to Protestantism during his childhood. He studied philosophy in the Universities of Bonn, Berlin and Jena from where he earned his doctorate in philosophy at the age of 23. As a student, he was involved in circles of young philosophers known as the Young-Hegelians. He worked as a journalist and editor for the influential newspaper Rheinische Zeitung of Cologne. The radical perspective of the newspaper led the Prussian authorities initially to censorship and later to the closing of the newspaper and to the exile of Marx. He took refuge in France and settled in Paris, where he had the opportunity to study French utopian socialism and English Political Economy, while at the same time, he was involved in the socialist movement in Prussia.
