Electronic Value Exchange examines in detail the transformation of the VISA electronic payment system from a collection of non-integrated, localized, paper-based bank credit card programs into the cooperative, global, electronic value exchange network it is today. Topics and features: provides a history of the VISA system from the mid-1960s to the early 1980s; presents a historical narrative based on research gathered from personal documents and interviews with key actors; investigates, for the first time, both the technological and social infrastructures necessary for the VISA system to operate; supplies a detailed case study, highlighting the mutual shaping of technology and social relations, and the influence that earlier information processing practices have on the way firms adopt computers and telecommunications; examines how “gateways” in transactional networks can reinforce or undermine established social boundaries, and reviews the establishment of trust in new payment devices.

Distributed ledger technology (DLT) has the potential to transform economic organization and financial structure.

This course book introduces readers to relevant concepts and issues that are frequently associated with prominent, yet common, payment devices (such as promissory notes, checks, credit and debit cards, wire transfers and letters of credit) and the applicable governing law. Unlike many other books covering similar material, Lee and Zinnecker separate treatment of negotiable promissory notes from checks and other drafts, making it easier to grasp important concepts, such as warranty liability and the holder-in-due-course doctrine. The book also provides extensive coverage of documentary transactions, including the often-ignored documents of title that are a significant part of a transaction involving a commercial letter of credit. With the purpose of enhancing statutory analysis of real-world problems, the book includes more than 100 problems, many of them based on actual cases and diagrammed for better understanding.
