A [philosophical] framework holding that [rationality] is context-dependent—that what counts as rational reasoning, good reasons, and appropriate [justification] varies with the context of inquiry, the domain of application, and the purposes of the reasoner. Rational contextualism challenges the idea of a single, universal standard of rationality. What is rational in a scientific context may not be in a moral context; what is rational in everyday life may not be in a courtroom. Contextualism doesn't abandon reason; it recognizes that reason is always reason-in-context. It demands that we attend to the contexts that shape what counts as rational.
