Kurzfassung:
Aviad M. Kleinberg's response to Dan Diner's article contests his use of universal terms of rationality to explain history and human acts, such as the extermination of the Jews during the Holocaust, since the everyday life of human beings is full of contradictions. Rationality should be considered as a historical fact to be explained instead of as the method of explanation. Diner's response to Kleinberg clarifies his original article: his work on the epistemological meaning of the "Judenrats'" reactions to the Nazi policy explains their rational reactions, which were based on universal human responses, rather than relating to a particular Jewish historical experience. Diner defines the Nazi policy towards the Jews as counterrationality, since it did not relate to any experience which could have been rationalized by the Jews or explained by previously experienced events.
