Summary/Abstract: Contemporary public debate less and less touches the key issues for the traditional philosophy of politics, and more and more focused on very form of the statements. The political correctness reduces serious, profound discussions and causes, that some philosophical problems are “untouchable”. Many issues brought up publicly are starting being subject to an evaluation in aesthetic categories. The aim of the article is to show the contemporary context of designating the external conditions for practicing political philosophy and to present an overview of the factors affecting the framework of content and formal frames such debate.
