Parte de los resultados mostraron que mientras que para los varones homosexuales los aspectos centrales de la relaci{\´o}n y del amor son fundamentales, en la pr{\´a}ctica su enfoque m{\´a}s com{\´u}n para negociar sus necesidades emocionales es a trav{\´e}s de >amigos< y >amistades<, como un paradigma clave relacional con otros varones.

In particular, Erich Fromm's notions of >central relatedness< as well >mature love< are also discussed in an attempt to link the role of such notions as part of a developing clinical analytic work with gay men. Part of the research findings showed that whilst for gay men issues of central relatedness and love are of paramount importance, in practice, their most common practical approach to negotiate their emotional needs was actually through >friendships< and >friendliness< as a key relational paradigm that enabled them negotiate their emotional needs with other men. The implications of the salience of connecting Fromm's contributions to clinical analytic work to further develop clinical work with gay men and sexual diversity in general are also emphasized.}, language = {en} } @article{Jimenez, author = {Jimenez, Luis}, title = {The psychosocial significance of social character, habitus and structures of feeling in research on neoliberal post-industrial work}, series = {Journal of Psychosocial Studies, Vol. 12, No. 3 (2019), pp. 259-276.

This includes secondary analysis of my own earlier research on the psychosocial ramifications of the loss of stable work, changing worker-gendered identities, disrupted affect, community engagement and historical memory within a global context of insecure labour.
