Grounded rationality: A relativist framework for normative rationality

An old Jewish story tells about two litigants appearing before the town’s rabbi. The first litigant having presented his case, the rabbi tells him: You are right. Then the second litigant presents his case, and the rabbi tells him, too: You are right. After the litigants had gone, the rabbi’s wife reproaches him: How can they both be right? The rabbi listens to her attentively, and says: You know what? You are right, too!
