We study the kinetics after a low temperature quench of the one-dimensional Ising model
with long range interactions between spins at distance
$r$ decaying as $r^{-\alpha}$. For $\alpha =0$, i.e. mean field, all spins
evolve coherently quickly driving the system towards a magnetised state. In the weak long range
regime with $\alpha >1$ there is a coarsening behaviour with competing domains of opposite sign without
development of magnetisation. For strong long range, i.e. $0<\alpha <1$, we show that the system
shows both features, with probability $P_\alpha (N)$ of having the latter one, with the
different limiting behaviours $\lim _{N\to \infty}P_\alpha (N)=0$ (at fixed $\alpha<1$) and
$\lim _{\alpha \to 1}P_\alpha (N)=1$ (at fixed finite $N$). {\color{red}We discuss how this behaviour is a manifestation
of an underlying dynamical scaling symmetry due to the presence of a single characteristic
time $\tau _\alpha (N)\sim N^\alpha$.
