Abstract
In recent decades, research in the square of opposition has been increased. New interpretations, extensions, and generalizations have been suggested, both Aristotelian and non-Aristotelian ones. The paper attempts at comparing different versions of the square of opposition. For this reason, we appeal to the wider categorical model-theoretic framework of the theory of institutions.
