International Agreements Entered Into by Subnational Entities of Argentina and Spain. Characterization from a Dual Analysis Mapping of Regulations on Child Nutrition in Argentina

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to delve into the intricate legal regulation of the external action of the Argentinian provinces and the Spanish autonomous communities. The proposed analysis is relevant as it uncovers the complexities of how sub–state entities are becoming increasingly prominent in the international scenario. However, this complexity often hinders the translation of their actions into effective regulation in International Law. This action is intensely studied in the field of international relations and one of the terms used to describe this phenomenon is paradiplomacy. From the conclusions, it will be noticed that, in spite of the differences in the regulations of both States, they have basic legislation that should be valued. In the absence of applicable norms in the field of Public International Law, recourse must be had to the provisions of each country’s domestic law.
