Is it because of academic historians, or because medias like the discourse around racism these days? When we know that science publication is not exempt of human greed (https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.02192 https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.02192 for a recent exemple), it's better to look for articles that make consensus. I also think the discipline won't die, plenty of bad research have been made and forgotten later. The title is a bit dramatic.
