life and work

From high school he was drafted into the Navy and in 1945 was taken prisoner by the British. In 1947 he made up his Abitur and was trained as a primary school teacher in Weinburg / Lahn. This was followed by seven years of teaching at elementary and secondary schools. In addition to his teaching profession, Roeder studied pedagogy, German and English studies at the University of Marburg and received his doctorate there in 1960 with a dissertation on the history and criticism of the secondary school reading book . He was assistant to Elisabeth Blochmann at the educational science seminar in Marburg and qualified as a professor in 1966 in educational science. The appointment to a full professorship at the University of Hamburg was the result of his outstanding habilitation thesis Education and Society. A contribution to the history of the problem with special consideration of the work of Lorenz von Stein . Roeder crossed the boundaries of pedagogical tradition and thus became one of the founders of an empirical and socio-historical educational science in Germany.

In 1973, Roeder was appointed scientific member and director at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin and was also appointed associate professor at the Free University of Berlin . He promoted many young researchers who now represent sub-disciplines of educational science, and has played a decisive role in shaping a new generation of educators. With his turning away from German idealism in favor of Critical Rationalism , the empirical orientation of institute research in particular received an “important strengthening”. At the end of 1995 Roeder retired. In 1996 he received an honorary doctorate from the Ruhr University in Bochum as a “co-founder of pedagogy in a socio-historical context”.
