520 |a The article examines the relationships between rape rates and various measures of general, racial, and gender inequality for United States metropolitan area. Contemporary scholarship reflects a growing consensus that a major cause of rape lies in structural inequality in society, and particularly the subordinate position of women vis-a-vis men in the social, political, and economic orders. Despite this viewpoint, empirical analyses of rape and inequality have been very few in number. Moreover, existing studies suffer from a number of serious limitations such that they do not provide a basis for rejecting, or accepting, rape and inequality arguments. Rape provides a way for such men to express their resentment and hostility. An additional line of argument contends that rape stems from general and racial inequality. Peter Blau and associates view high rates of violent crime in the United States, including rape, as a consequence of the plight of "have nots" in an affluent society. In an affluent society that is also plagued by high levels of socioeconomic inequality in general, and racial inequality in particular, high rates of violent crime are to be expected
