Der Volksstaat was the central organ of the German Social Democratic Workers Party (Sozialdemokratische Arbeiterpartei Deutschlands). It was published in Leipzig from October 2, 1869 to September 23, 1876. It was edited by Wilhelm Liebknecht, with help from Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. They also contributed to the newspaper as did many other socialists including Joseph Dietzgen.

Shortly after he became a member of the Social Democratic Party of Austria (SPÖ) in 1875, Karl Kautsky published his first contributions to Der Volksstaat.[1][2]
