One of the MAP [[map:t:here|terms]]

====== social organism (MAP term) ======

See [[https://memetic-activation-platform.github.io/docs-understanding-map/understanding-the-map/appendices/glossary/#social-organism|social organism]] in the [[https://memetic-activation-platform.github.io/docs-understanding-map/understanding-the-map/appendices/glossary/|Glossary]] according to which it:
> is an [[AgentSpace]] that has developed enough internal coherence, governance capacity, and memetic identity to act as an [[Agent]] in its own right—a [[Holon]] one level up.

I would modify this slightly to read something like:

"When an [[AgentSpace]] contains [[agent]]s that have sufficient internal coherence, governance capacity, and memetic identity, they can be treated as a unified [[Agent]] in its own right—a [[Holon]] one level up."

===== Commentary =====
[[a:aSimonG]]: This seems to me to confuse the broad idea of a space with the things that are contained in a space and bounded by the space's membrane. To me, the MAP terminology would benefit from a very clear distinction in vocabulary between a space and what is in that space; between a container and what is contained.

However, I also note that we are actually talking about representations in the MAP, rather than the things themselves; and thus the distinction is perhaps less clear.
