Michel Villey
Michel Villey (born April 4, 1914 in Caen ; died July 24, 1988 ) was a French legal philosopher and legal historian who taught at the University of Strasbourg and later at the University of Paris . As a critic of contemporary law, Villey advocated a return to an Aristotelian legal thought.

In particular through his lively teaching activity, Villey exerted a significant influence on an entire generation of French legal philosophers and historians, such as Yann Thomas , Stéphane Rials and Chantal Delsol .
