Abstract
This article focuses on cultural and recreational industries in the United States.Cultural industries are defined as arts,entertainment,and recreation,as well as components of education,the information sector,wholesaling and retailing,manufacturing (for example,musical instruments),and accommodation and food services.Consumption patterns of cultural industries are shown to have changed significantly over the past 40 years in the United States.This change has been associated in part with changing information technologies,and in part by changes in policies permitting new types of recreation,especially gambling.The study documents the changing level of employment in these industries by state,using data for both employers and proprietors.Some sectors are highly concentrated spatially,while others are distributed widely.
Introduction
Cultural industries are defined for the purposes of this article as a broad collection of economic
activities associated with the consumption of culture.In this study cultural industries are not
equated with arts,sports,or recreation,but rather are considered to be the me´lange of activity
associated with these three categories of consumption and related activities.It is clear that
activity in these categories blends into one another; they are not mutually exclusive.This definition
of cultural industries is purposefully broad,broader than that used by Scott (1997) and
Pratt (1997).My motivation for this broader definition is driven by the US Bureau of Economic
Analysis (BEA) gross domestic product (GDP) accounts treatment of household consumption
expenditures (PCE).These accounts allocate all expenditures by households into broad expenditure
categories.These categories are not directly translatable into employment categories
reported by the Census Bureau in series such as county business patterns (CBP).However,
rough cross-over between demand-based PCE measures and employment based CBP categories
are possible.This article explores these connections.
