In his monograph The Paradoxes of Classical Logic (Paradoxy klasickéj logiky. Filosofie a logika hypotetických vět), Vít Punčochář, in addition to an overview of classical logic, presents the paradoxes of material implication and an explanation of the primary alternative ways to solve them, especially in the form of an exposition of his own version of the theory of strict assertibility. The theory is presented in a sufficiently comprehensive form on a base of detailed argumentation. In the critical part of this article, the author lays out the ideas that form the basis of his own solution to the main paradoxes of material implication, which is still based on the concept of truth. At the same time, it uses the distinction between the actual and the potentially unreal, or if you like the absolutely unrealistic conditions of implicit sentences and the corresponding classification of conditional sentences into factuals, agnostic conditionals and counterfactuals. The author additionally suggests differentiating between situations in which the analysis of conditional sentences as material implications has precedence over those in which it is an expression of inference. In the latter case, it is an expression of the abbreviations of judgments, where tacit assumptions and the principle of ceteris paribus can come into play.

In this paper I deal with two key concepts of a modern political theory, i.e. truth and public interest, and examine relationships between them. This subject seems particularly important in the context of the observed crisis of the liberal democracy and the spread of misinformation and fake news. I argue that there is a need to create a public system of protection designed to defend the logical status of those statements which have a value for the society. By using the notion of public interest as a tool for analysis, I demonstrate how such a system might be structured. I suggest employing existing public institutions to construct a system of public protection of the truth, yet supplemented by a coordinating body based on the ombudsman model.
