Based on the analysis of a research experience with migrant women, this text aims at revealing a series of ethical issues that occurred while the research process and the subsequent dissemination of its results. Specifically, I will examine the implications that reification of migrant subjects and their conceptualization as "objects" of study, as well as the use of certain categories for their representation. I will also consider a whole series of epistemological issues that in migration studies may finish as a symbolic violence resulting from the asymmetric relationship between researchers and ethnicized subjects. As a final reflection, I will expose the need to set out a corpus of ethical principles that may be able to respond to the particularities of the research carried out in the field of migration studies.
