The emerging of cultural industries in the West is closely correlated with the economic development and industrialization of these countries. From the threshold of the 21th century, the mass production and the wide application of machines created ample commodities and enable the ordinary people to have access to culture and arts which used to be the privilege of the elite minority. In addition, the utility principle of commercial value affected people's aesthetic value. The western society entered into the era of mass consumption. As capitalism turned into flexible accumulation period since 1970s, cultural industries began to earn new vitality as part of the high-value added knowledge economy. Moreover, the gradually emerging of the post-modern value of the emphasis on self-value realization and spiritual need in western countries chimed perfectly with the need of cultural consumption. The cultural industry is in a mutual-interaction relationship with the social progress through impacts of cultural value and cultural practices, the latter of which includes cultural production and the patterns of cultural life.
