Summary:碩士 === 世新大學 === 企業管理研究所(含碩專班) === 101 === May 20th, 2012 is an important milestone for Taiwan’s cultural development, as the Ministry of Culture became formally listed and started operation. After the Council for Cultural Affairs officially became the Ministry of Culture, it became the highest competent authorities for cultural affairs. This not only symbolizes the organizational reform of government agencies, but also shows Taiwan’s determination towards becoming a cultural nation. However, as far as the ratios of the cultural expenditure in the total budget over the years are concerned, it seems that this cultural policy is just another empty election promise made by political parties. The rise and fall of national strength hinge largely on its ability to influence the world through its profound cultural soft power. The cultural policy is an issue to be faced, and cultural output should come before industry and commodity. The process of Taiwan's economic development has gone through the industrial structure changed from early agriculture to heavy industry, and now Taiwan has evolved to a created economy ready to take off through trade, processing, and foundry. Faced with today's trend of innovation and added value characteristics of service industry, and the accompanying upgrade and transformation of electronics and traditional industries, what edges can Taiwan retain are of the top priority to its further development. Taiwan's diverse cultural environment once contributed to its technical strength in R&D and innovation, but the advantages have faded. In addition, with the flight of industries, lack of resources, loss of the competitive edge of human capital, migration of talents, and other factors, Taiwan is now faced with a dilemma. Therefore, the development of culture-based industries is one of the focused development plans in our country. Through the analysis of value chain emergent from cultural development, we can gain an insight into the direction of the cultural policy formulation. Many leading technological companies have realized the importance of innovative thinking and have attached importance to creativity and the art of living in order to create an innovative environment and devise ways to enhance aesthetics, which must start from the cultural roots.
