Person
Mihai Botez
Mihai Horia Botez was a Romanian mathematician and dissident, nicknamed "Romania's Sakharov" by the international press. A leading statistician, he played a key role in founding the study of futurology in the Eastern European country, before becoming a critic of the communist regime's catastrophic economic policies. He survived four suspicious attacks, including a stabbing, a car ramming, and a beating that left him hospitalized and which human rights groups blamed on the country's secret police, the Securitate.
