Abstract

Self-organization in the sense of the ability of biological, natural and social systems to change their structure by themselves during the process of their interaction with the environment is one of the most important cybernetic and conceptual principles at the core of systems science. Although self-organizing is rooted in biology and physics, but also social systems, the Internet and virtual social networks because of the characteristics of self-organized systems (such as complexity, dynamism, imbalance, spontaneity, interaction, recreation, self-preservation, synergy, positive feedback and Negative and...) Can be considered self-organizing. Society can be described as a self-creating and self-organizing system that is able to reproduce and organize itself through structural actions and interactions and social actors and based on human creative activities. The Internet is also a technological-social system (consisting of a technological subsystem or networks consisting of computer networks and social subsystems or networks consisting of social communication networks) and a network of networks in which the human factor plays a key role in web self-organization.The present study was conducted in a conceptual review manner with the aim of explaining the principle of self-organization in social systems, especially the Internet and virtual social networks.
