Karl Marx

Karl Marx is a German philosopher, who started his career in 1842. He created the Marxist anthropology which is often characterized as a phase in time of anthropology theory. Marxist Anthropology is a combination of naturalism and humanism. Karl Marx is also known for writing editorials on social and economic issues.

One was the law of development of human history. The second discovery he made was the law of bourgeois society.
