EPPC Senior Fellow Sir Roger Scruton has earned recognition from the governments of Hungary, Poland, and the Czech Republic for his courageous anti-communist efforts and his legacy of moral and intellectual leadership.
Sir Roger was honored on December 3 in London with the Order of Merit of the Republic of Hungary, and last month, in Prague, he received the Medal of the Czech Senate for his work alongside Czech dissenters behind the Iron Curtain. (He also received the Czech Republic’s Medal of Merit from President Václav Havel in 1998.)
Earlier this year, Sir Roger was also presented the Order of Merit from the Republic of Poland by President Andrzej Duda.
