This research is theoretically framed in the internationalization process of sub-national governments. Since 1990 the executive branch of Entre Ríos Province (Argentina) has developed several actions of decentralized cooperation (international treaties, letters of intent and concrete actions). It hypothesizes that all actions have tackled a wide range of topics with external partners as a response to economic interests of Entre Ríos Province bureaucracy. This has been possible due to competences acknowledged and established by a specific legal framework. The analysis was based on a descriptive and exploratory methodological design, employing several techniques such as literature review, document analysis and interviews to key informants. It concludes that most actions have encompassed economic development and production with governmental actors (national and sub-national) located in “the South”. International cooperation has been on the public policy agenda intermittently without materializing in a Secretary or main and permanent office with its own budget and personnel. As a result, decentralized international cooperation of Entre Ríos province lacked planning, coordination and monitoring.
