Resource Management of Miao Drum-Dancing in Xiangxi

Abstract

This research focuses on Miao Drum-dancing in Xiangxi, Hunan Province, examining it from a resource management perspective. With the gradual aging and passing of the inheritors, the Xiangxi Miao Drum-dancing art is at risk of being lost or even facing extinction. The audience is shrinking and aging, and the lack of management personnel, outdated management methods, and insufficient funds, among other factors, directly impact the effectiveness of preserving and protecting Miao Drum-dancing in Xiangxi.

This paper primarily employs quantitative research methods. It collects a substantial amount of relevant policies and regulations and gathers information from four distinct groups: managers, staff, inheritors, and the audience of the cultural departments associated with Miao Drum-dancing in Xiangxi. It analyzes and seeks to improve the resource management system by examining aspects such as the inheritance process, its scope, methods, audience demographics, and age structure. "
