摘　　要：由于在范畴成员的判定标准以及对待成员间差异性的态度方面,经典范畴理论和类典型理论存在着较大的分歧,因此二者常被认为是对立的两种范畴理论。论证表明,经典范畴理论与类典型理论并不是相互对立的。类典型理论是对经典理论的继承和发展。在对不断发展的社会生活中的各种范畴的划分上,类典型理论更具包容性。然而,经典范畴理论也并非完全过时。在对具有相对恒定性的范畴如生物范畴进行归类时,经典范畴理论仍有其独特的优越性。As a result of different judging standards and different attitudes towards category members as well as their differences and similarities, classical category theory and quasi - type theory are generally considered to be two confrontational category theories though scholars still have disagreements about them. However, research shows that classical category theory and quasi - type theory are not confrontational. The latter is the result of the inheritance and development of the former. In the division of all categories in the constantly developing social life, quasi - type theory is even more inclusive. Yet, classical category theory is not out of date either. When classifying relatively constant categories such as biological categories, classical category theory still has its unique superiority.
