In the book Brand America, the author believes the US establishes and manages the country¡¦s image as a brand; in the long run, it imperceptibly boosts the national competitiveness of the US. In the meantime, the various phenomena in economy elicited by the cultural and creative industries and the general meaning of a ¡§National Image¡¨ at the conceptual level make people aware that the cultural creative industries have a great influence on a nation¡¦s competitiveness.
The methodology of literature review is adopted. The researcher establishes indicators of cultural creative industries and indicators of the state branding, then makes assessments. The research purposively samples 45 countries in all from the three biggest economic areas (15 each), which are the European Union (EU), the Organization of American States (OAS) and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) and then makes comparisons.
