Being a vocal member of a Pirate Party I'm a bit biased, but if there
were only one link I could share, that'd be the one.  So to add to it,
there's plenty of provocative articles by Pirates on Rick's website at
<http://falkvinge.net/>

Some additional reading that discusses some of our core concerns in
depth and from various points of view:

- "Little Brother" <http://craphound.com/littlebrother/about/>
- "No Safe Harbor" <http://www.nosafeharbor.com/>
- "Year Zero" <http://www.nosafeharbor.com/>

The first two books are available for free download.  The third is
worth purchasing IMHO - I just finished reading it yesterday.

I would also recommend watching the hashtag #ppint (Pirate Parties
International) on twitter which we use to share newsworthy and/or
important articles.  Should anyone feel like mining it, there's plenty
of Pirate-related articles linked in my twitter stream

Best regards,
- Scott.


PS - The sequel to "Little Brother" should be out soonish, "No Safe
Harbor" has a sequel planned, and a sequel for "Year Zero" is
apparently being considered.
