The Upsurge of Mysticism as a Jewish and Global Phenomenon
The Upsurge of Mysticism as a Jewish and Global Phenomenon
This chapter explores three processes in the development of Jewish mysticism from the start of the twenty-first century. These three processes are: the global process, changes taking place in Israel and the Jewish world in general, and changes within Jewish religious society in Israel and the world. Despite distinctions in the processes, globalization and increasing ties between Israeli society and the Jewish Diaspora have managed to somewhat erase the distinctions, at least to some extent.
Keywords: globalization, Jewish mysticism, Israel, Israeli Diaspora, religious society
