Public cultural services are the product of social progress.Providing public cultural services by the government is the satisfaction of citizen's basic cultural needs,the guarantee of citizen's basic cultural rights,and the proper meaning of the function of building a service-oriented government.Public cultural service is one of the core concepts of public administration and government reform,and

government,strengthen the functions of social public services,and provide public cultural services.The basic requirements of public cultural service construction include commonweal,fundamental,equality and convenience.Equality is the core requirement of public cultural service construction and the path choice to realize the fairness of basic public cultural services and the goal requirement of the construction of public cultural services.Because culture is created by the people,the fruits of culture development should be shared by the people.In 2013,the Third Plenary Session of the Eighteenth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China first proposed to promote the equalization of basic public cultural services.The equalization of basic public cultural services refers to the public cultural products and services that the government-based public sector gives priority to meeting the public cultural needs of all members of society based on the level of social development.Specifically,it includes reading newspapers,watching TV,watching movies,listening to radio,free opening of public cultural facilities and sports activities,etc.Hubei Province is one of the six central provinces.In recent years,many achievements have been made in the construction of basic public cultural services.The standards of basiccultural service are constantly improving.Public cultural service facilities are improving day by day.Public awareness of safeguarding basic public cultural rights and interests has been constantly strengthened.The quality of public cultural services in Hubei Province varies greatly among regions and groups,and the level of public cultural services in one main and two deputies areas is relatively high.The quality of public cultural services in other cities and states still needs to be enhanced.Starting with the concept of culture,the paper gradually summarizes the connotation and extension of basic public cultural services,and then elaborates on the equalization of basic public cultural services.Research methods mainly include literature research,comparative analysis and interview.The theoretical basis includes Maslow's hierarchy of demand theory,social justice theory,public goods theory conceptual interpretation includes equalization of culture,basic public service,public cultural service and the equalization of basic public cultural service.The significance of topic selection includes theoretical and practical significance.The theoretical significance includes that the paper enriches the research content of equalization of basic public cultural services to a certain extent.Based on the empirical analysis of the equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province,the paper compares and analyses the main factors that restrict the equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province,and puts forward some countermeasures.At the same time,it also provides some ideas for the study of the equalization of basic public cultural services in the central region.From this point of view,the paper has a certain rich role for the equalization of public cultural services.Secondly,the paper enriches the research methods of equalization of basic public cultural services to a certain extent.The paper studies the measurement index of the equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province,collects data,and quantifies the equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province by using coefficient of variation and coefficient of equalization.Firstly,the paper introduces the significance of choosing the equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province as the research object,briefly summarize the achievements and problems of the equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province,and points out the realistic needs and urgency of realizing the equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province.Achieving the equalization of basic public cultural services is the goal corresponding to the policies of building a harmonious socialism society,boosting public cultural development andprosperity,and meeting the growing needs of the people for a better life.Secondly,the author uses the method of coefficient of variation to conduct a comprehensive study on the current situation of the equalization to conduct a comprehensive study on the current situation of the equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province from both horizontal and vertical directions.The first step is to measure the degree of equalization of cities and states in Hubei Province in 2017 based on the indexes,and to get the overall index of equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province in 2017 based on the weighted sum of index weights.The second step is to use the same method to analyze the overall level of equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province in 2015 and 2016.The third step is to analyze the results.Finally,on the basis of investigation and analysis,the author summarizes the existing problems and constraints of the equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province,and tries to put forward some paths to achieve the equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province.The main problems include the large gap of regional equalization,inequality of financial input,Insufficient Construction of Talented Personnel,Infrastructure construction needs to be improved.Restrictive factors mainly include economic development factors,resource allocation factors and service function factors.At the same time,the final conclusions of this study mainly include three points:The first point is that according to the statistical results of nine indicators,such as libraries,cultural museums and art performance groups,there are great differences among cities and states.The second point is that the coefficients of variation of the nine indicators of basic public cultural services in the cities and states of Hubei Province in 2017 are different.There are three indexes whose coefficient of variation exceeds 0.6.The coefficient of variation of three indexes ranges from 0.4 to0.6.The coefficient of variation of one index ranges from 0.2 to 0.4.The coefficient of variation of two indexes is less than 0.2.The third point is that the equalization index of basic public cultural services in Hubei Province from 2015 to 2017 is still around 0.4,although it is decreasing year by year.It shows that the level of equalization of basic public cultural services in Hubei is constantly improving,but it has not reached the ideal level.Because of the shortcomings of research ability and research methods,this study has not covered the whole province of Hubei in an all-round way,and needs to be further strengthened.
