 Wilhelm Liebknecht biography .ms
From 1878 to 1890, Liebknecht used his position as a Reichstag member to criticize the political situation even under Otto von Bismarck's "Sozialistengesetz" ("Socialists' law"); in 1891, he became editor-in-chief of "Vorwärts" and one of the originators of the SPD's new Marxist-inspired party platform.
After being evicted from Berlin, Liebknecht moved to Leipzig, where he met August Bebel, with whom he founded the Sächsische Volkspartei ("Saxon People's Party") in 1867 and the SDAP (Sozialdemokratische Arbeiterpartei Deutschlands, "Social Democratic Worker's Party of Germany") in 1869 in Eisenach.
Following his release in May 1849, he became a member of the Badische Volkswehr and an adjutant of Struve and fought in the Reichverfassungskämpfe ("federal constitution wars"); after the revolutionaries' defeat, he escaped to Switzerland and became a member of the Genfer Arbeiterverein (Worker's Association of Geneva), where he met Friedrich Engels.

 Otto von Bismarck - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Otto von Bismarck was educated at the Friedrich Wilhelm Gymnasium and the Grauen Kloster Gymnasium.
Bismarck was also worried about the growth of the socialist movement — in particular, that of the Social Democratic Party.
The new Emperor opposed Bismarck's careful foreign policy; he preferred vigorous and rapid expansion to protect Germany's "place in the sun." The rift was further widened by differing views on domestic policy; Bismarck wanted anti-socialist policies to remain in place, whilst the Emperor thought that he could win popularity by refusing to renew them.

 Encyclopedia4U - Otto von Bismarck - Encyclopedia Article
Otto Eduard Leopold von Bismarck (April 1, 1815 - July 30, 1898) was the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Prussia (1862 - 1890); he unified Germany with a series of wars and became the first Chancellor (1871 - 1890) of the German Empire.
Initially a deeply conservative, aristocratic, and monarchist politician, Bismarck fought the growing social democracy movement in the 1880s by outlawing several organizations and pragmatically instituting mandatory old-age pensions, health- and accident insurances for workers.
He married Johanna von Puttkamer in 1847 in a long and happy marriage that produced 3 children.

 Humboldt University of Berlin - Art History Online Reference and Guide
Founders of Marxist theory Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels attended the university, as did poet Heinrich Heine, German unifier Otto von Bismarck, Communist Party of Germany founder Karl Liebknecht, and European unifier Robert Schuman.
The Humboldt University of Berlin (German Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin) is the successor to Berlin 's oldest university, the Friedrich Wilhelm University (Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität), founded in 1810 by the liberal Prussian educational reformer and linguist Wilhelm von Humboldt whose university model has strongly influenced other European and Western universities.
Until the collapse of the East German regime in 1989, the Humboldt University remained under tight ideological control of the communist party which, by rigorously selecting students according to their abiding to the party line, made sure that no democratic opposition could grow on its university campuses.
