摘要：The objective of this paper is to study the legitimacy of earnings inequality in contexts with different economic inequality levels. The question guiding the research is: How do high levels of income inequality in a society influence the legitimacy of earnings inequality? Such question requires on the one hand tackling the concept of legitimacy – characteristic of sociology from Weber onwards – as well as its empirical measurement, by proposing a multidimensional model for measuring legitimacy based on the theory of David Beetham. The empirical estimation of this model is performed by structural equation and multilevel analysis using data of the International Social Survey Program (ISSP).
