Extending Māori Concepts in Secondary School Geography

open access: yesNew Zealand Geographer, Volume 82, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Secondary school geography brings together tāngata (people) and whenua (land), the central concepts of te ao Māori (the Māori world). Therefore, geography is ideally placed to respond to calls for mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge) to gain “equal status” with Western knowledge.

The Revo‐Evo Debate in the History and Philosophy of Science

open access: yesNatural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
The paper juxtaposes revolutionary and evolutionary positions in epistemology in general as well as the history of science. While it deems the evolutionary arguments more persuasive, it also stresses the dependence of our assessment of change on the language we choose to describe the theories and positions under consideration.

What Is Space Bioethics?

open access: yesBioethics, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 558-564, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Classical bioethics examines moral issues in terrestrial medicine and the life sciences. According to Konrad Szocik, space bioethics merely relocates those questions to harsher environments. We argue that this view is incomplete: space bioethics is a genuinely original domain.

Technologized Reproduction in Space: A Space‐Bioethical Case for Assisted Procreation

open access: yesBioethics, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 582-588, July 2026.
ABSTRACT With the increasing feasibility of space colonization, the issue of reproduction in space is becoming more relevant. As new settlements on the Moon, Mars, and other celestial bodies emerge, ensuring generational continuity will be essential for the survival and growth of these communities.
