The liquid crystal aligning agent contains a polymer component and an α,β-unsaturated compound having two or more partial structures represented by formula (1) or formula (2) in one molecule. However, in formulas (1) and (2), X 1 is a carbonyl group or a sulfonyl group, L 1 is a leaving group that is desorbed by reaction with a group possessed by the polymer component, and L 2 is an oxygen atom. Or a sulfur atom, and R 5 is a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group having 1 or more carbon atoms. |
