Growing weary of their exacting, harsh, and overbearing coach, Central High School’s soccer team refused to practice unless thei
r coach stepped down. After their successful overthrow, the soccer team struggled to stay organized and found there was too much chaos for them to be able to have effective practices. Some of the players wanted a recently graduated player to come back and be the coach while the community wanted the economics teacher to take over, and a few of the players wanted the old coach back. The economics teacher convinced everyone that he would be the best coach and took over. What is likely to occur next, according to the Human Predicament cycle?
Answer: The team will organize, but the coach will run things like a dictator.
Explanation:
The human predicament cycle includes revolution, anarchy, competing groups, and tyranny.
The soccer team demanding change is going through a revolution, as a means to remove the tyranny of an overbearing coach.
The chaos that followed is a state of anarchy, without anyone in power. The different options represent the competing groups that fight for control. The economics teacher stepping in represents the new order that will likely end up being a tyranny.
