| Sumario: | The objective of the article is to carry out an empirically informed reflection on the recent impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the international insertion strategies of local governments. The hypothesis that guides the analysis assumes that a positive impact of the global health crisis is observed on the interests and motivations, as well as on the tools available to local administrations for their international actions. The work, based on an extensive review and documentary analysis, focused on the municipal governments of the interior of the Province of Buenos Aires based on the experiences of the municipalities of Tandil and Pergamino, reveals that both used their internationalization trajectory, achieving no not only to support an active agenda in this area, but also, including international relations as part of local action to face the crisis. In this sense, while Pergamino leaned more on its unilateral foreign trade policies, Tandil maintained a more comprehensive performance, with emphasis on its multilateral relations, through participation in city networks. |
