description From 1883 to the law of July 10, 1896, the national administration of higher education tried hard to create new local and autonomous academic structures, that eventually took the name of universities. This article analyzes not only the process of gradually implementing the reform, but also the very conception of autonomy that was then favored by academics from various French law schools. The example of Lyon highlights how the university project was the occasion for a large local mobilization, way beyond the narrow limits of the academic community. Although the universities were not granted all the expected capacities from the law of 1896, the new university of Lyon benefited from the close involvement of political and economic circles that supported it until the First World War.
