Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Makarov (1857-1919) was an Imperial Russian Politician. 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 but received an appointment to the State Council where he was aligned with the political right wing parties. He was briefly appointed Minister of Justice in the late months of 1916, a post he held until the February Revolution of 1917. He was arrested and executed by the Bolsheviks in 1919.
