Hieronder vindt u de wetenschappelijke literatuur-referenties. U kunt deze lijst ook online terugvinden op: https://wiki.piratenpartij.nl . Op die pagina vindt u ook een korte samenvatting per referentie. Veel van de links die hier aangeboden worden zijn helaas nog niet zo vrij toegankelijk als ze zouden moeten zijn; ze staan achter de zogenaamde ‘paywalls’, wat betekent dat ze alleen tegen betaling toegankelijk zijn. Ook daar kunt u op 22 mei uw stem tegen laten horen!
