The polymerization reaction is conducted by heating a lactide, a cyclic imide compound (e.g. succinimide, etc.) and a polymerization catalyst (e.g. tin octylate, etc.) at 100-190 DEG C. with stirring under a nitrogen gas flow. It is preferred that an amount of the cyclic imide compound is from 1 to 35% by mole based on the lactide. Even if an amount of the polymerization catalyst is small, e.g. 0.00001-0.1 mole %, based on the lactide, polylactic acid can be efficiently prepared. It is possible to avoid remains of the catalyst in the polymer and coloring of the polymer.
