In his ground-breaking book The Paths to Privity V.V. Palmer has identified the period between 1500 and 1680 as the “formative period”of the doctrine of privity of contract. Within that period there were, he suggests, “basically four individual paths to privity for the beneficiary”: the interest theory, the benefit theory, the agency cases, and the consideration theory. This article is concerned with the first of these theories, and in particular with the role played within that theory by the concepts of use and trust.
