Finckenauer and Gavin Describe a Cycle They Call the Panacea

Finckenauer and Gavin describe a cycle they call the panacea phenomenon. The third step is:

A) Frustration builds, and the program is labeled a failure
B) An intervention is proposed as the latest and greatest plan, but with deeply unrealistic expectations
C) Policy makers return to the proverbial drawing board to develop a new intervention that will be labeled the next great thing, and the cycle will repeat itself
D) The intervention is implemented but does not meet the unrealistic goals
