A positive resist composition including: a base component (A′) that exhibits increased solubility in an alkali developing solution under action of acid, without including an acid generator component other than the base component (A′), wherein the base component (A′) includes a resin component (A1) having a structural unit (a0-1) represented by general formula (a0-1) shown below and a structural unit (a1) containing an acid dissociable, dissolution inhibiting group: wherein R1 represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms or a halogenated alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms; R2 represents a single bond or a divalent linking group; and R3 represents a cyclic group that contains—SO2—within the ring skeleton thereof.
