This paper presents an analysis of the internationalisation of intermediate cities in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. Framed in the field of the paradiplomacy studies, it takes a critical stance on the use of the concept and returns to alternative theoretical-methodological tools, such as subnational international policy and the international participation index. Taking a quantitative-qualitative approach, it notes a significantly higher internationalisation profile of these cities recently, with increasing levels of institutionalisation and a pre-eminence of unilateral and bilateral strategies. The originality of the work lies in its focus on a realm that has received relatively little attention in the speciality in Latin America, and in the study of general trends, going beyond the single case studies that dominate the field.

Torilis arvensis (Huds.) Link has been collected in the northeast of Buenos Aires province, Argentina, in urban areas, confirming its existence in the country as was predicted by Pedersen's contribution to the Flora Ilustrada de Entre Rios. This is a rare species in the United Kingdom, but classified as harmful plant in Spain and as a weed in several states of the United States of America. In our country, is regarded as an introduced naturalized plant, which may behave like invasive (plant strategist R) because, among other features, it is a therophyte producing abundant viable seeds. The present paper describes and illustrates this species, including the pollen grains which were studied using optical and scanning electron microscopy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the results of a study of the current situation of sixteen periurban homegardens at the coasts of Ensenada-Berisso and Martín García Island (Buenos Aires, Argentina) in relation to its historical context of ecological, cultural and economic transformations. In this approach, it becomes evident the adaptive character of the local horticultural practices, as well as its supporting traditional knowledge and its contribution to local agrobiodiversity. The homegardens floristic composition was studied, and ethnobotanical qualitative methods were carried out. Eighty cultivated taxa were recorded, as well as diverse products obtained from them. They are used for family consumption and small-scale marketing, as a supplement to the domestic economy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
