pentru dvs. contează litera dicţionarului, nu spiritul limbii. Linkul google sugerat arată utilizarea sintagmei în context, în articole din NYT, Reuters sau Forbes, înseamnând exact "în condiţiile/ contextul ...". Your "disagree" is unwarranted.

Discussion
“The circumstances ***amid*** which you live determine your reputation.
The truth you believe determines your character.” -- William H. Davis
circumstances= conditii, imprejurari
amid= printre, in mijlocul
Nu spun ca nu sunt de acord cu sintagma, spun doar ca are semnificatia de "in mijlocul", "printre", iar dovada este ca uneori se folosesc impreuna "circumstances amid", tocmai din acest motiv, altminteri ar fi pleonasm. Regards.
