Definition
- Bruderhof is the informal name of a radical Christian communitarian movement that has been known at different times as the Bruderhof Communities, Society of Brothers, and Hutterian Society of Brothers. One of the most vital communitarian societies active in modern times on several continents, the Bruderhof has in recent years also become one of the most controversial, as former members accuse it of cultlike practices.
