Emmanuil Semjonowitsch Jentschmen
Emmanuil Semjonowitsch Jentschmen ( Russian Эммануил Семёнович Енчмен ; * 1891 in Tbilisi ; † 1966 ) was a Soviet philosopher .
Jentschmen developed a "theory of new biology" which explains the disappearance of consciousness and thought in connection with the appearance of the "communist system of organic reflexes". According to the theory, humans are only “a system of organic movement” that has purely physiological reactions without the psyche playing a role.

Leading Russian communists contradicted the theory, so Bukharin 1923 in the newspaper "Rotes Neuland" under the title "Jentschmeniada (on the question of ideological degeneration)".
