at a university. He received his doctor's degree in April, 1841.

     In 1842, Marx began writing articles for a newspaper. He wrote articles on many subjects, For

example, he wrote about housing problems of the poor people and the hard life of the peasants. He

started a new program called Communism. This new kind of political idea was supported by the

working people, but hated by many governments. He and his wife had to move from one country to

another.
