Features: Developing cultural economy has become a new trend in the advancement of human civilization. As the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out: "In today's world, culture, economy, and politics are intertwined, playing an increasingly prominent role in the competition of comprehensive national strength. The power of culture is deeply embedded in the vitality, creativity, and cohesion of a nation." From a global perspective and the development trend of the world, culture has become an important factor in contemporary social productivity and a significant driving force for economic growth. The accelerating integration of culture and economy has brought the relationship between them to a new realm—where the economy leverages culture to enhance its development quality, and culture leverages the economy to realize its own value and innovation. The book "Cultural Economy: The Coordinate of the Times—Research on Social Development Strategy," written by the Strategic Research Group on Cultural Economy of the Provincial Academy of Social Sciences, theoretically elaborates on the basic connotations of cultural economy and strategically proposes ideas for the coordinated development of cultural economy in Guangdong. It represents a brand-new theoretical research and practical exploration, serving as a valuable reference for studying cultural issues.
