All the hundreds of mitzvoth (commands), principles and beliefs of the Torah. Though it may have an associated culture and one or more associated languages, the traditional definition of Judaism is the observance of the Torah, which is why dictionaries define Judaism as "the religion of Moses." In this sense, the word "Torah" is meant in its wider meaning, which includes the Tanakh, the Talmud, and other classical Jewish texts.
The question as phrased is unclear.
If it asking if Jews have any traditions stemming from the modern day, then this defeats the entire idea of tradition, which in Judaism means ancient.
If it is asking what traditions Jews still pursue in the modern day, Orthodox Jews pursue all of the traditions that Jews have historically followed. Liberal Jews are more lax in this regard and generally celebrate holidays, but not the more daily traditions such as kashrut or tefillin wearing.
Answer 2:
You could ask if there are any modern-day Jewish customs. While a bona fide Jewish custom takes a couple of centuries (or more) to become widespread and approved, there are some relatively recent ones, such as the Kabbalat Shabbat prayer service, whose provenance goes back just 440 years. Even that wasn't universally accepted until some 250 years after its inception.

The philosophy of Judaism is that this world is a purposeful creation by God, in which all people are tested concerning their use of free-will. We possess a soul which lives on after the body dies and is held responsible for the person's actions.
Some examples of the commands:
Jews observe their traditions wherever they live. These go back for many centuries, and were not just created in recent decades. Nonetheless, Israel does have ways in which its status as a majority-Jewish country is demonstrated:
Jewish traditions go back for thousands of years. Religious Jews live by the Torah, by obeying its commands and beliefs.Link: Jewish beliefs
Some examples of the commands:
And many more.
The laws have various reasons. Some (such as the Passover) serve to reenact or remember events of our history.
Some (such as saying the Shema-prayer) serve to reiterate our belief in God.
Some of the laws (such as those of ritual purity and kosher food) serve to sanctify us.
Some (such as the laws of torts) serve to maintain an orderly and just society.
Some (such as the law against breaking a vow) serve to prevent bad character traits.
Some (such as the command to offer help) serve to engender good character traits.
And all of the commands serve to subjugate us to God's will (especially those commands for which no explanation is easily apparent).
Note that the Torah "as is" isn't exactly what Judaism observes. Rather, it's the Torah together with the details provided in the Talmud, which is the Oral Law that was handed down together with the laws of Moses. Otherwise, the verses of the Torah often lack enough detail to be fulfilled as is.

Judaism is tradition. Tradition defines it. The Torah has been handed over from generation to generation in an unbroken chain.

The traditions of Judaism include its beliefs and its laws and practices, of which the holy days are one part. These all have the role of making Judaism what it is, since without them, Judaism becomes a mere cultural phenomenon that evaporates within a couple of generations (as history has shown).
