Abstract
A method of producing a copolymer, including copolymerizing a monomer (am0) containing a partial structure represented by formula (am0-1) shown below, a monomer (am1) containing an acid decomposable group which exhibits increased polarity by the action of acid and a monomer (am5) containing an —SO— containing cyclic group in the presence of a nitrogen-containing compound (X) having a conjugated acid with an acid dissociation constant of less than 10 (in the formula, *0 to *4 each represents a valence bond).
