Larisa Babukh is a Soviet-Russian research engineer and educator who found her way into national politics during the aftermath of the 1991 upheavals. She sat as a member of the State Duma between 1993 and 1995, representing the "Женщины России" ("Women of Russia" grouping). In 1995 she emerged as a leader of the "Образование — будущее России" ("Education - Russia's Future") quasi-party. Attempts to have the new movement registered for participation in the 1995 Duma elections did not succeed due to a failure to obtain sufficient signatures on the nomination submission. She subsequently worked as a senior education administrator. Her attempts to secure re-election to the State Duma were unsuccessful. In 2006 she became a co-chair of the short-lived "Партия социальной справедливости"("Social Justice Party").^[1][2]
