This article engages with the framework of performativity to unpack ethical challenges of interviewing migrants in the setting of shared ethnic background of researchers and participants. From a temporal perspective of shifting contexts from a shared space of the research process, to the post-research reciprocity management, it focusses on the particular aspect of disclosure.,Drawing on several qualitative studies performed by the authors as Polish migrant researchers with Polish migrant communities in Norway, Germany and the United Kingdom, the article documents the ethical challenges that come from a shifting “audience” of the research performance.,Specifically, it discusses how the researchers perform their roles in the field with the focus on rapport building (relational disclosure), to then addressing how this performance changes when the dissemination of findings (representational disclosure) begins and continues over time.,This article contributes to the long-standing anthropological debate on self-reflection in the field. Also, demythologizing the relations between a researcher and participants, as well as cautioning research by reporting difficulties at different stages of the research process, will likely make it easier for future researchers who may now be better prepared and anticipate the complexities of doing fieldwork. From a temporal perspective, it can also help a broader scientific community avoid pitfalls from presenting unfavourable results prematurely. Thus, the authors hope that this paper may sensitize migration scholars to the possible predicaments in the process of interviewing their co-ethnics.,A methodological innovation lies in a clear focus on the cluster of ethical disclosure dilemmas and the article contributes to a lively debate on ethics of “insider research” in migration studies.

定性迁移研究中关系披露和代表披露的伦理

本文涉及性能框架,以解决研究人员和参与者具有共同种族背景的情况下采访移民的道德挑战。从将研究环境从研究过程的共享空间转移到研究后互惠管理的时间观点来看,它侧重于披露的特定方面。借鉴作者作为波兰移民研究人员和波兰移民所做的一些定性研究在挪威,德国和英国的三个社区中,本文记录了研究绩效不断变化的“听众”带来的伦理挑战。特别是,本文讨论了研究人员在该领域如何发挥作用,并着重建立融洽关系(关系披露),从而解决当发现(代表性披露)的传播开始并随着时间的推移而不断变化时这种表现如何变化的情况。本文为人类学领域关于自我反思的长期辩论做出了贡献。同样,取消研究人员与参与者之间关系的神秘化,并通过报告研究过程中不同阶段的困难来警告研究,这可能会使将来的研究人员更容易,他们现在可以更好地做好准备,并预期进行现场工作的复杂性。从时间的角度来看,它还可以帮助更广泛的科学界避免因过早呈现不利结果而陷入困境。因此,作者希望本文可以使移民学者在采访他们的族群的过程中意识到可能的困境。
