Life

Rohrberg completed  his PhD B  in 1979 at the German University of Physical Culture (DHfK) in Leipzig , the title of his thesis was "Sports activity and socialist personality development: a theoretical-sociological consideration of this relationship with special consideration of physical education". From 1985 to 1994 he held a professorship for the history and theory of physical culture at the University of Education in Zwickau and from 1992 after its integration at the University of Chemnitz / Zwickau . Rohrberg dealt, among other things, with the connection between sport and socialist society, physical education, personal development in sporting terms, "motivating young people to do sport", the area of ​​"needs and sporting activity", "sporting value orientations of students", the " The role of sports sociology in the development of recreational sports in the former GDR ”.

After his retirement, Rohrberg published, among other things, essays on sports history topics such as the development of popular sport in the GDR (published in 1999 in the journal Sportwissenschaft ), on the subject of "Individualization and Sport" and the question of whether popular sport was neglected in the GDR.

In 2007 he published together with Fred Gras and Bero Rigauer  “Sports sociology and sports practice in the GDR and FRG. A comparative study ", which did not want to choose an approach characterized by East-West thinking and mutual competition, but pursued the goal of" conducting a sociological dialogue on the level of empathic and enlightening communication ".

In 2006, in retrospect, he complained about a "war against the GDR" on the part of the West, which also extended to sport and included, among other things, "boycott, defamation and poaching".
