The present invention provides a curable composition containing at least one species selected from polymerizable monomers represented by the following formulas (I) to (III) and a polymerization initiator, and a planographic printing plate precursor including the same. The curable composition can be cured with high sensitivity due to laser light exposure or the like, and the inhibition of polymerization due to oxygen is controlled. The composition has excellent solubility in a developer or a solvent.
