Person
Alexander von Bach
Alexander von Bach was an Austrian lawyer and statesman who served as minister of the interior from 1849 to 1859. He gave his name to the decade of neo-absolutism that followed the revolutions of 1848, the 'Bach system' of centralised bureaucratic rule, German as the language of administration and police surveillance, which ended after Austria's defeat in Italy in 1859.
