摘要：

We investigate the extent to which income inequality influences national piracy rates across a sample of 34 countries. Economic Inequality seems to have a negative significant effect oil national rates of piracy. Consistent with previous Studies, we also find that judicial efficiency affects piracy rates. Additionally, research results show that income and education are not important determinants of piracy rates.
