Synopsis

Non-political state official or political actor behind the scenes? A biographical study on the first state secretary of the Federal Ministry of the Interior. As the first state secretary of the Federal Ministry of the Interior, Hans Ritter von Lex (1893-1970) always remained a man of the second row. Nevertheless, he designed the construction of one of the most important ministries of the Federal Republic like hardly any other. In countless areas of matter, especially human resources and security policy, Ritter von Lex gave guidelines and set important accents. Who was the man who is still considered one of the central political stripping pullers behind the scenes of the early Federal Republic? What experiences and imprints influenced his actions? Irina Stange explores his career from the late Empire to the 1960s. It goes to the bottom of the relief construct of the apolitical official and deals with the state welfare orientation of a representative of the conservative official. At the same time, she throws new highlights on the history of the Bavarian People's Party, for which Knights of Lex sat in the Reichstag and whose army association he directed. In addition, Stange examines his work in the National Socialist Reich Administration and illuminates the importance of anti-communist enemy images for domestic political concepts and material work.
