History
UCITA has started as an attempt to modify Uniform Commercial Code, by introducing new article (Article 2B), also known as UCC2B. Committee for drafting UCC2B consisted of both members from NCCUSL and members of American Law Institute (ALI). At certain stage of the process, ALI has withdrawn from the drafting process, effectively killing UCC2B. Afterwards, NCCUSL has renamed UCC2B into UCITA and proceeded on its own.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Literary works cannot be taken over like factories, or literary forms of expression like industrial methods. Realist writing, of which history offers many widely varying examples, is likewise conditioned by the question of how, when and for what class it is made use of.”
—Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)
“The best history is but like the art of Rembrandt; it casts a vivid light on certain selected causes, on those which were best and greatest; it leaves all the rest in shadow and unseen.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
“The history of any nation follows an undulatory course. In the trough of the wave we find more or less complete anarchy; but the crest is not more or less complete Utopia, but only, at best, a tolerably humane, partially free and fairly just society that invariably carries within itself the seeds of its own decadence.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
