The engineering of the social aspects has been acknowledged as one of the principal issues in the realization of real-world multiagent systems. The literature proposes a number of solutions to this problem and in this paper we consider three of them and we discuss their relationships. First, we take into account hybrid coordination models based on tuple centres. Then, we consider interaction protocols as a means to coordinate multiagent systems. Finally, we address the implicit coordination that the semantics of classic agent communication languages propose. We base our discussion on the common ground of coordination models and we sketch a comparison between such approaches.
