Indonesian term or phrase: kebenaran material dan kebenaran formil
Ternyata ada banyak sekali frasa legal dalam hukum kita yang sulit untuk diterjemahkan. Apa itu kebenaran material? Material truth? Formal truth? Terdengar agak aneh...


Terimakasih atas masukannya,

Reference: Material truth vs. formal truth

Reference information:
These terms are translated literally.

There are several online references on these two contrasting concepts in logic. The following will explain these concepts:

One could, however, distinguish between formal and material truth. The former would be the logical coherence of deductions from postulates or premises without contradicting itself. The latter would be the truth as concordance with reality. The statements of pure geometry are true if they are coherent with the axioms conventionally postulated at the beginning. Nevertheless, this formal truth is not enough seeing as it has been detached from reality, and must be integrated with material truth understood at least as compatibility of assertions which express empirical facts ( LOGIC). According to M. Schlick there is nothing inappropriate to describe such a compatibility using the old, yet good phrase "concordance with reality" - as it seems opportune (cf. The Foundation of Knowledge , 1934, in "Logical Positivism", ed. A.J. Ayer, New York 1959). Vice versa, the neopositivism of Carnap and of Neurath understands truth as the coherence of propositions among themselves, a theory that the previously mentioned author, Schlick, holds to be completely inadequate. In fact, the theory of truth as coherence does not provide any univocal criterion of truth since it is logically possible to arrive at any number of systems of propositions internally non contradictory, but among them (that is externally and reciprocally) incompatible, with the result that one would arrive at the idea of a multiple truth not just a double truth. The notion of truth as coherence is also present in the English idealist authors at the end of the 19th century, among whom worth noting is F.H. Bradley (cf. Appearance and Reality , 1893).
