Self-Stabilization is an important concept for distributed computing and communication networks. It describes a system's ability to recover automatically from unexpected failure. It is also an important issue for multiagent systems, as they are distributed and communicative systems. Therefore, we investigate self-stabilization for multiagent systems and how it can be achieved. We define the functionality of an agent society and the task to be achieved in terms of roles which agents may fulfill. Self-Stabilization can thus be achieved by ensuring role adopting and role fulfillment within an agent society.
