Résumé	Longitudinal Critical Discourse Analysis (LCDA) combines the critical discourse analysis tradition — which examines how language constructs and reproduces power, ideology, and social inequality — with a longitudinal design that collects and compares texts at multiple time points. By tracking discursive change over time, LCDA reveals how ideological representations, social identities, and power relations shift, stabilise, or are contested across different historical or political periods.	Longitudinal qualitative content analysis (LQCA) applies systematic content analysis to text data gathered from the same participants, settings, or documents at two or more points in time. The method preserves the interpretive rigour of qualitative content analysis while adding an explicit temporal dimension, enabling researchers to track how meanings, experiences, categories, or discourse shift, deepen, or stabilise across time rather than producing a single-point-in-time description.
