The article presents a deductive system consisting of five postulates meant to capture a structuralist theory of science. The author is of the opinion that the postulates yield a certain degree of completeness. A higher-order semantics is given to the deductive system. Two examples from mechanics illustrate the framework. Towards the end some difficulties with achieving a complete formalisation are discussed.
