文化工业的勃起是现代社会发展史上具有深远历史意义的事件。法兰克福学派片面地夸大其消极方面,将其看成是资本力量与机械化生产对人类价值的全面剥夺、扭曲与压制的工具。实际上,文化工业通过生产与消费的“文化化”过程,发挥着对社会、经济和人性发展的积极作用,使当代社会不仅趋于“知识经济时代”,也正趋于“文化经济时代”。 The erection of the cultural industry is an event of far-reaching historic significance in the history of modern society. The Frankfurt School unilaterally exaggerates its negative aspects as a tool of total deprivation, distortion and repression of human values ​​by capital and mechanization. In fact, the cultural industry plays an active role in social, economic and human development through the process of “culturalization” of production and consumption, so that contemporary society not only tends toward the era of “knowledge-based economy” but also tends to “era of cultural economy” .
