Chinese Comics The Development Of Fault Phenomena To Study

In the field of Culture Industry, the Cartoon and Animation Industry based on the digital technology is bringing big fortune to the world. It also receives more attention in China nowadays. As one basic part of the Cartoon and Animation Industry, the Cartoon Industry is weak both in practice and research compared with the Animation Industry in China .But it plays an important role in related area. In the limited study of the Cartoon Industry in China, almost all views focus on the macroscopical description of the reality without detailed analysis and specific advice. But I find the history of the Cartoon development is discontinuous, which affects the whole Cartoon and Animation Industry. Hence I choose this topic as the subject for my thesis, hoping to learn and draw some lesson from the past experience , including warning and enlightenment.This project is divided into six parts. The first chapter mostly explains the origin, content and means of my study, and summarizes the present state of the related research. The second chapter sums up and analyses the dilemma of Chinese Cartoon Industry. The third and forth chapters retrospect the history of the development of the Cartoon in China and other countries, and compare the difference between China and other countries, and then discuss the short boom and quick decline of Chinese comic strip. The next chapter further discusses the situation after the decline, including the cartoon editing and marketing, cartoon works, cartoon magazines and cartoonists, and so on. At last, the conclusion and advice is presented.
