Resumen	Critical hermeneutic phenomenology is a qualitative research approach that combines Gadamerian hermeneutics — the philosophical study of interpretation — with critical social theory to examine both the lived meaning of experience and the structural, ideological, and power-laden conditions that shape it. It asks not only 'what is this experience like?' but also 'what historical, social, and political forces produce and constrain it?' The approach is widely used in education, nursing, social work, and the human sciences.	Interpretive phenomenology is a qualitative research design that investigates the meaning people attribute to their lived experiences by combining phenomenological description with hermeneutic interpretation. Rooted in Heidegger's ontology and systematised for social and human sciences by Max van Manen, it moves beyond description to ask what an experience means within a person's broader lifeworld, cultural context, and situated understanding. The researcher's own interpretive horizon is treated as an analytical resource rather than a bias to eliminate.
