This requires a subjective answer, as many historians have pointed out. With that said, one main job of a historian is to search for facts about the topic or area that is being studied. The research for facts should be unbiased. If a bias is intended, then the historian needs to inform the reader of this. For example, a historian wants to write about Marxist interpretations of World War II. In such a publication the historian must say whether he/she is a Marxist or not.
