  The lodging industry is transitioningto the online collaborative economy, withdigitalplatforms mediatingbetween hosts and guests. However,this has createdsignificant inequalities between the platform management and the service providers.Objective. The paper proposes (a) to contribute toorganisational cyberneticsthroughevolutionary theory, (b) to analysethe emergence of platform cooperativism, and (c) to propose a platform cooperative based on the VSM,which we have called a cyber-cooperative.Design: Applyingcybernetic evolutionary epistemology and the VSM, the article analyses the current state of theplatform lodging industry andproposes the core characteristics of the cyber-cooperative. Findings: The article finds: a) it contributes to the theory of viable systems by integrating evolutionary theory; b) it uses the proposed theory to explain the developments in the collaborative economy of the lodging industry; c) it relates meme theory with the identity of the system and identifies the political ideas in cooperative organisations; d)it proposes the ideaof the cyber-cooperative for developing the lodging industry.Originality:Evolutionary epistemology in organisational cybernetics, and the politics of identity in cooperativism are both novel approaches in the VSM.Type of paper: Research paper.
