    The author studies an axiomatization of homotopy theories and deduces various fundamental theorems in a systematic manner [cf. \textit{K. H. Kamps}, Math. Z. 124, 215-236 (1972; Zbl 0223.55020) and \textit{T. Matumoto}, J. Fac. Sci., Univ. Tokyo, Sect. I A 18, 363-374 (1971; Zbl 0232.57031)]. Puppe's theorem and J. H. C. Whitehead's theorem etc. hold in the category of functor complexes. Moreover, obstruction theory and Postnikov systems in the functor category are developed.
