An electroconductive nickel paste containing a nickel powder, a ceramic powder and an organic vehicle, wherein the ceramic powder has nickel and/or a nickel compound and a rare earth element compound being present on the surface and/or in a surface layer. The use of the electroconductive nickel paste for the formation of inner electrodes (3, 4) improves the intimacy (wetness) of the ceramic powder contained in the electroconductive nickel paste with nickel, which results in preventing the ceramic powder from being discharged from the inner electrodes (3, 4) until the temperature region of sintering of the ceramic layer (2) and thus in the duration of satisfactory effect for the inhibition of sintering. Accordingly, of electroconductive nickel pastes containing a ceramic powder for the exhibition of sintering inhibiting effect, the above nickel paste exhibits the sintering inhibiting effect with higher reliability.
