There is provided a composition for forming a resist underlayer film not only having a large selection ratio of a dry etching rate but also exhibiting desired values of the k value and of the refractive index n at a short wavelength such as a wavelength of an ArF excimer laser. A resist underlayer film forming composition for lithography comprising: a linear polymer; and a solvent, wherein a backbone of the linear polymer has a unit structure in which 2,4-dihydroxy benzoic acid is introduced through an ester bond and an ether bond. |
