Abstract: Based on the statistical data of 31 provinces from 2007 to 2016, this paper uses the Theil index method to measure the degree of differentiation of China's public cultural service expenditures, and systematically analyzes the temporal and spatial evolution characteristics among regions and among provinces within regions.The results are as follows: (1) the total Theil index values measured based on the three dimensions of the population size, GDP and the fiscal expenditure show obviously different characteristics, among which only the index values measured in the dimensions of the population size show obvious fluctuation and decline trend, while the index values measured in the other two dimensions do not show obvious decline trend. (2)The performance of the Theil index varies widely between interregional and intraregional.The degree of interregional differentiation gradually shrinks and becomes balanced gradually, while the improvement of regional internal difference is not significant and has a great influence on the overall difference, and it is the main reason for the formation of regional differences.(3)According to the temporal and spatial change of the Theil index among different provinces in different regions, it is found that the allocation of public cultural service resources among different provinces in the region show significant differentiation with the population distribution in its jurisdiction.(4)From the four-quadrant diagram of the two dimensions of GDP and the fiscal expenditure and the public cultural service expenditure respectively, the paper finds that only four provinces of Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai and inner Mongolia have achieved quadrant I-double high type, while all the other provinces have not reached the level of this quadrant.
