Abstract: This paper discusses the attempts to publish a historical-critical edition of the works of Karl Marx, the Marx-Engels Gesamtausgabe (MEGA): the first one, which was led by David Riazanov in the 1920's and 1930's, and the second one, the MEGA2 project which begun in the 1970's and is still in course of publication. The paper presents these two editions and discusses their impact on the interpretation of Marx's economic and philosophical thought.
