Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently derived from 'social' (relating to society or communal relationships) + 'organization' (a collective or structured group). This noun-noun combination follows ordinary compositional patterns and has clear equivalents in many languages, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Social organization combines social, from a word for 'friends' or people who belong together, and organization, the act of arranging parts so they work as one. Picture a team or a house where each person has a role and a place — that image shows why it means the 'structure and roles that organize people in a group'.
