Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Family name hatnote Шаблон:Infobox officeholder Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Makarov (Шаблон:Lang-ru; Шаблон:OldStyleDate – 1919) was a Russian politician who served as the interior minister of the Russia Empire from 1911 to 1912 and as justice minister in 1916.

Life

After graduating from the University of Saint Petersburg, he entered the Ministry of Justice. He rose to the position of Public Prosecutor, and eventually Chairman of a District Court. In 1906, he was appointed Chairman of the Kharkov Court of Appeals. In 1906, he was appointed Assistant Minister of the Interior in charge of the Police under Stolypin until he was appointed Imperial Secretary in 1909. He was appointed Minister of the Interior in 1911 after Stolypin's assassination on the recommendation of Kokovstsov. He left the position of Minister in December 1912 after the Lena Minefields incident and disagreements over regulation of the press[1] about a sexual connection between Grigori Rasputin and the Tsarina.

Makarov received an appointment to the State Council where he was aligned with the political right wing parties. He was appointed Minister of Justice in July 1916, against the wish of Alexandra and Rasputin, but there was a lack of competent men. He lost the post in December after hindering the investigation into the assassination of Rasputin since he had given Felix Yusupov, a participant in Rasputin's assassination, permission to leave the city.[2]

After the February Revolution he was arrested on March 1, 1917, released and re-arrested in October 1917. He was executed by the Cheka in a Moscow prison in 1919.
