Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to analyse a short period in the life of Karl Marx when he was a student at the Law Faculty at the University of Bonn, and then at the Law Faculty at the University of Berlin. During the period of these, ultimately uncompleted, legal studies, his attention was absorbed by the notions of „state” and „law”, the analysis of which in his later work - as a philosopher, economist and revolutionary activist - was an important element of his academic delibarations. This article therefore analyses issues related to Karl Marx’s first steps as a young student of law. The author presents selected threads of Karl Marx’s statements, mainly those concerning the political and legal system, which appeared in his publications, both during the period in question and later.
