Over the past three decades of reform and opening-up, China's cultural market has flourished into a thriving landscape, evolving from non-existence to substantial scale. Traditional cultural dissemination methods have undergone transformative changes through new media platforms, with audio-visual technologies, mobile devices, and the internet providing faster and more convenient channels for accessing spiritual and cultural resources.
While the vitality and expansion of the cultural market enrich public spiritual life, they also introduce complex challenges that demand enhanced management capabilities. China has established a three-dimensional management network spanning central, provincial, municipal, and county-level cultural market supervision agencies, adopting a comprehensive regulatory framework that prioritizes legal governance while integrating administrative, economic, and public oversight mechanisms. However, persistent issues such as late market development, regional disparities, and diversified operational components have created heterogeneous management dilemmas across regions. This underscores the critical importance of advancing research on cultural market governance methodologies.
Against this backdrop, CnOpenData presents the Directory of Cultural Market Business Entities, containing administrative licensing information for over 300,000 cultural market entities nationwide, including institution names (机构名称), license/filing numbers (许可备案证号), regions (所在地区), market types (市场类型), and business scopes (经营范围). This dataset provides robust support for academic research in related fields.
