Abstract
Today’s concept of “Information Industry” is produced and developed on the basis of knowledge industry study. Professor F. Machlup, an American economist, first proposed the concept similar to information industry. In his book Knowledge and Distribution in the United States published in 1962, he put forward the concept of “Knowledge Industry” for the first time. Although Professor F. Machlup did not use the term “Information Industry” definitely, and its scope was different from that of the current information industry, it is undeniable that it basically reflects the main characteristics of the information industry.
