Abstract

Advertising is the carrier of cultural communication. As a kind of advertising, public service advertising is a non-profit advertising activity that reflects social reality and serves the social welfare cause. Because of a wide range of communication, it has great influence on social and economic development and cultural communication. The theme of public service advertisements includes all aspects of family life such as family, society, education, health and safety. It not only reflects social phenomena, but also reflects the values and cultural connotations of a society. China and the United States also have many differences in the development of public service advertisements due to differences in social systems, historical backgrounds, and cultural practices.

This paper takes Hofstede’s cultural dimensions theory as the theoretical basis to compare the Chinese and American public service advertising from the perspectives of power distance, uncertainty avoidance, individualism and collectivism, masculinity and femininity. Based on scholar’s existing research, by collecting data, consulting literature, and analyzing cases, it explores the differences between Chinese and American public service advertising and gives suggestions for the development of domestic public service advertisements.
