Provided are: a polymerizable composition; a polymer obtained by polymerizing the composition (including an optical adhesive sheet); an image display device using the polymer; and a method for manufacturing the image display device. The polymerizable composition includes: (1) at least one chosen from the group consisting of a compound including a (meth)acrylol group with a polyolefin structural unit, a compound including a (meth)acrylol group with a hydrogenated polyolefin structural unit, a compound including a (meth)acrylol group with a (poly)ester structural unit, and a compound including a (meth)acrylol group with a (poly)carbonate structural unit; (2) a liquid compound including a (meth)acrylol group other than constituent (1); (3) at least one chosen from the group consisting of liquid hydrogenated polybutadiene polyol, liquid hydrogenated polyisoprene polyol, and hydrogenated dimer diol; and (4) a photopolymerization initiator.
