요약	Critical content analysis is a qualitative approach that examines texts, media, and documents not merely for manifest meaning but for how they construct, reinforce, or contest relations of power, ideology, race, gender, and class. Grounded in critical theory traditions, it asks whose interests a text serves, what voices are silenced, and how language and representation naturalise dominant worldviews. It combines systematic analytic rigour with an explicitly emancipatory or transformative research stance.	Interpretive content analysis is a systematic qualitative approach for analyzing the latent meanings and interpretive frameworks embedded in textual, visual, or documentary data. Unlike frequency-based content analysis, it foregrounds the researcher's interpretive engagement with texts to uncover how meaning is constructed, contested, or reproduced. Philipp Mayring's qualitative content analysis and broader interpretive traditions provide the methodological backbone for this approach.
