January 2, 20100 -- /Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal///Logos/ The Russian journal /Logos/, one of the most important journals of philosophy in Russia, is publishing a special issue on Karl Marx in January 2011. It includes a translation of *Marcello Musto*'s "The Rediscovery of Karl Marx" and an extensive interview with Musto. Below is the English translation of the interview. * * * *You have published already several studies on Marx and many of them depart from the recent research situation created by the publication of **MEGA2 (**/Marx-Engels Gesamtausgabe/**, the new historico-critical editions of Marx and Engels' collected works)* <http://marxdialecticalstudies.blogspot.com/2010/09/marx-engels-gesamtausgabe-mega-project.html>*. Do you think that the new and hitherto unknown materials published there will change profoundly our picture of Marx and Marxism? * I have been working many years with the volumes of the /Marx-Engels Gesamtausgabe/ (MEGA2) and have tried to pay great attention, in my work, to the recent philological discoveries related to the writings of Marx already known but previously edited in an incorrect way, as well as to the previously unpublished materials, like the preparatory drafts of /Capital/ or Marx's notebooks of excerpts that appeared in the last few years. These materials, to give you an example, brought to light thousands of editorial interventions made by Engels to Marx's /magnum opus/ and demonstrated that, far from espousing a conclusive economic theory, volume II and III of /Capital/ were by and large provisional notes under development.
