Category theory (CT) is important in virtue of its mathematical applications and its power to generate philosophical debate. It is a language for algebraic topology, a deductive system in homological algebra, and, as an alternative to set theory, a means of object construction (in Grothendieck's conception of algebraic geometry). Unpublished sources show that Grothendieck quit the Bourbaki group because of a debate on CT, which was partly epistemological in nature, especially as far as set-theoretical realisation of categorical constructions was concerned. We claim that CT is fundamental because it is a theory of some typical operations of structural mathematics: in our pragmatic perspective, justification of mathematical knowledge is not p...
