And the dominant one in civil war histiography. Each school was named by its detractors.

Kind of like calling people anti choice or pro death.

Everyone agrees slavery was the proximate cause, but the arguments are over whether politics polarizing around it was inevitable, exactly why the south seceded w Lincoln's win, etc.

At least according to this revisionists pre 1960 were generally lost causers and lost, recently they've had a comeback but are still a minority.
