Zusammenfassung:This paper analyzes the social, economic and political determinants of Olympic success in post-war games. To this end, a panel data regression with fixed effects, using a sample of 102 countries for the years 1960 to 2012 was employed. The dependent variables used were: the sum of medals won by a country in a given edition of the Olympics and the total gold medals earned by a nation. The results obtained show that the most significant determinants for these variables are the GDP per capita, the autocracy level, the average total years of study and whether the country is hosting the Olympics.
