Aaah... Thank you for sharing your sources of information! :D *sighs* I don't keep up with what sources I read at the moment, so I'll postpone reading those. Please continue to inform us of what catches your eye the most! ^_^
hm...should I also up-date about the informations I get through blogs? I read a few, sometimes I had posted about them (click at the "annoyed", "society", "law" or "japan" -tag if you've got time...but most of them aren't very nice (?)...especially if you ad "je" as well...) at the moment I'm pretty into informations from a guy (jewish-american...the jewish part is kinda important for his role in Japan), who had been working as a journalist in Japan for a big daily-japanese (!!)-newspaper and reported MUCH about Yakuza and their role in society...he even wrote some books about it (I'll going to order one..."Tokyo Vice"...it's great!) and NEOJAPONISM.com...source of informations about alternative sides of japan, and also about JE-critic/problems or rather the idol-jimushu-system at a whole...
