Go forward to 2 Reduction to first-order logic

1 What can be declared in a basic item?

Design proposal: Allow the declaration of constants only, see e.g. [Hax97]. In principle, this does not restrict the language, because we have functional types.
Alternative: Allow the declaration of constants and functions, see e.g. [Cer93]. This has the advantage of being more directly a superlanguage of first-order CASL. But the disadvantage is that we have two kinds of arrows for (almost) the same thing.
