"This anthology effectively destroys the widely held belief that the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) is a sterile and lifeless maze. Whereas most teaching and scholarship on the UCC has concerned itself with narrow issues surrounding one or more provisions, this book tackles the wider topics that make the UCC a living, experimental, and sometimes controversial text.The book begins with a treatment of the codification movement from which the UCC project was born and then turns to the history and drafting of the UCC, including selections from its principal drafters. Litowitz then raises pointed questions about the jurisprudence and interpretation of the UCC, including challenges from critics. After discussing often-neglected issues surrounding the social and political implications of the UCC, the discussion turns to currently pressing problems such as the amendment process and the arguments surrounding federalization. Students and professors alike will find the anthology a wonderful complement to the standard materials assigned in commercial law classes, facilitating a broader scholarly discussion of the UCC."
