The Party of Workers' Self-Government (Russian: Партия самоуправления трудящихся, Partiya samoupravleniya trudyashchikhsya, PST) was a political party in Russia.
History
The party was established by Svyatoslav Fyodorov. In the 1995 parliamentary elections the party received 4% of the proportional representation vote,[3] failing to cross the electoral threshold. However, it won a single constituency seat in the State Duma.[4] Fyodorov contested the presidential elections the following year, finishing sixth out eleven candidates with 0.9% of the vote.
The party did not contest any further elections;[5] Fyodorov formed a new alliance, the Andrey Nikolayev and Svyatoslav Fyodorov Bloc, which won one seat.[6]
