Coherence for categorified operadic theories

Given an algebraic theory which can be described by a (possibly symmetric) operad P, we propose a definition of the weakening (or categorification) of the theory, in which equations that hold strictly for P -algebras hold only up to coherent isomorphism. This generalizes the theories of monoidal cat...
