Nowadays the effect of cultural industries on GDP, economic growth, social welfare and development of international exchanges is very significant. Therefore cultural activities are to become one of the most fundamental principles of the world economic system.
Accordingly, due to the richness and wealth of Iran in terms of cultural products, it is necessary to look at this matter in a different manner and to identify factors which affect the demand for this type of product in order to systematically improving structure of supply and the economy of culture.
This study aimed to carry out the composition and classification of factors which affect the demand for products of Iranian culture in domestic market. A qualitative study based on grounded theory, using interviews of 30 artists, scholars and cultural activists with snowball sampling method were conducted. Data analysis were done according to the developed grounded process model. Then, 182 concepts in 4 aspects of: "Stimulating the demand", "creating the demand", "supplying of the demand" and "repeating the demand" were modeled. The reliability of coding was verified with retest reliabilty percentage of 1.52.

Little effort has been exerted in the domain of the study of the relation between age structure of population with macroeconomic variables and the study of its effects on the economy of Iran. According to Life Cycle Theory, middle-age groups are owners of savings and young and old-age groups are consumers (their consumption is more than their savings). Wicksell’s cumulative Inflation Process Theory, founded on the resolutions of saving and investment, also foresees that the surplus of the demand raised from the difference in interest rate would contribute to the surplus of consumption which would cause, in turn, demand pressure and finally would result to more inflation. The presernt study is a document-experiment research and combining the above mentioned two theories, tries to analyze the effects of the age distribution of the population on inflation in the Iran, using estimation in OLS method. The findings of the research showed that the consuming age groups i.e. the ages between 0 – 14 years, 15 - 19 years, and over 64 years have a meaningful positive effect on the inflation, while saving age groups i.e. ages between 30 - 44 and 45 - 64 years have a meaningful negative effect on the inflation. The population limiting policy which has been exerted since 1989 has also had a meaningful negative effect on the inflation in Iran.
