The 1932 unrest in Lviv refers to antisemitic disturbances that took place in Lviv in November and December 1932.
From the late 1920s, the All-Polish Youth and other nationalist organizations vigorously campaigned for the introduction of ghetto benches and official restrictions on the number of Jewish students. Their actions were often accompanied by acts of violence. In the fall of 1932, the National Democratic Youth provoked two large-scale riots in Lviv (12–13 November and 27 November–1 December). In the first case, the pretext was the anniversary of the death of a Polish student who was killed in a clash with Jewish students in Vilnius; in the second, it was the death of a Lviv student who was killed by Jewish hooligans in a drunken brawl. The riots resulted in numerous injuries and arrests, as well as significant property damage.
