English summary: Judaism has never been a monolithic entity. For many years, its pluralism was primarily based on geographic and socio-cultural factors. Since the times of European Enlightenment, however, intra-Jewish diversity has also adopted a forceful ideological dynamic which has led to the formation of different and competing movements. In this volume, international scholars analyze different traditions within Judaism from different theological perspectives with the help of deep historical insight and sophisticated sociological methodology. This volume thus provides orientation in the debate about the significance of diversity and pluralism in Judaism and makes suggestions as to how religious communities in general can deal with pluralism. German description: Das Judentum war nie eine monolithische Grosse. War seine Pluralitat lange Zeit vorwiegend durch geografische und soziokulturelle Faktoren bedingt, hat die innerjudische Vielfalt seit der europaischen Aufklarung auch eine starke ideelle Dynamik angenommen und zur Ausbildung unterschiedlicher, miteinander konkurrierender Stromungen gefuhrt. In diesem Band analysieren internationale Beitragerinnen und Beitrager Stromungen des Judentums mit historischer Tiefenscharfe, sozialwissenschaftlicher Differenziertheit und aus unterschiedlichen theologischen Perspektiven. Das Buch bietet so Orientierung in der Auseinandersetzung uber den Stellenwert von Diversitat und Pluralismus im Judentum und Anregungen, wie religiose Gemeinschaften uberhaupt mit Pluralitat umgehen konnen.
