Sammanfattning	Critical hermeneutic analysis combines interpretive hermeneutics with critical social theory to read texts and discourse not only for meaning but for embedded power relations, ideological distortions, and structures of domination. Originating in Habermas's critique of Gadamer and developed further by Ricoeur's hermeneutics of suspicion, the method asks both 'what does this text mean?' and 'whose interests does this meaning serve?'. It is widely used in education, social work, policy research, and health humanities.	Textual criticism is a systematic philological method for identifying, comparing, and evaluating variant readings across multiple manuscript or print witnesses of a text in order to reconstruct the most accurate version of the original — or the author's intended — text. Applied since antiquity to classical, biblical, and literary works, it remains the foundational editorial method in classical studies, biblical scholarship, medieval studies, and critical editing of literary works.
