This method for producing a polycarbonate resin includes a step for conducting polycondensation through the transesterification of a carbonic acid diester and a dihydroxy compound, as a starting compound, in the presence of a transesterification catalyst, said dihydroxy compound containing at least an aliphatic dihydroxy compound having an ether oxygen atom in at least one β position or γ position of a hydroxy group, and said starting compound containing an alkanolamine. The method for producing a polycarbonate resin also includes a step for mixing the aliphatic dihydroxy compound, in a molten state, after first heating the aliphatic dihydroxy compound to at least 50°C, with the carbonic acid diester. |
