englischThe basis of this publication is Teichler's research on sport in the Nazi era and on sport in the GDR.

While the Nazi regime sought to demonstrate the superiority of the Aryan race through sport, the GDR dictatorship sought to demonstrate the superiority of socialism over capitalism.

The Nazi section first discusses figures such as Riefenstahl, Schmeling, and Diem. Then the focus is on the 1936 Berlin Olympics and the relationship with the IOC. Part II (GDR) addresses the difficult beginnings in the 1950s, the Olympic arms race of the 1960s, and the doping issue of the 1970s and 1980s. An analysis of submissions on sports examines the shortcomings of everyday life in the sports wonderland.
