A process for producing a polarizing element which comprises steps of treating a mixture comprising (A) an alkoxysilane and/or a hexaalkoxydisiloxane, (B) water and (C) an alcohol by heating under a condition of at 40 to 120° C. for 0.5 to 24 hours to prepare a coating solution for an alignment film, coating a substrate with the coating solution for an alignment film prepared above to prepare a sol-gel film, treating the sol-gel film by abrasion in a uniaxial direction to form an alignment layer having marks of abrasion in the uniaxial direction, aligning a dichroic coloring agent on the formed alignment layer by deposition to form a polarizing layer, and forming a protective layer for fixing the coloring agent on the formed polarizing layer. A polarizing element can be produced in simple steps, and separation of the polarizing layer in the steps of the production can be prevented.
