This type of emergence involves the self-organization of a system, where the components interact with each other in a way that facilitates the formation of a larger, more complex structure. It is commonly used to describe the evolution of living systems and other complex networks, such as the internet. Hierarchical emergence is also used to explain the development of self-organizing and self-regulating systems, such as the stock market, where the interactions between the different agents and components serve to shape the larger structure.
