Recent growth of interest in numerical classificatory strategies has led to the search for criteria which such strategies should fulfil. Two largely incompatible schools of thought have now arisen, one in Cambridge the other in Australia: the article examines the differences in the basic premises of these schools with particular reference to linguistic differences and the wider implications of the two sets of criteria.
