For Unicode, go the horse's mouth at 
<http://www.unicode.org/standard/principles.html>.

As for locales, there's no standard.  Google for "L10N", but prepare for the 
worst.

Linux usually relies on the localization support provided through GNU's libc, 
which partially implements the POSIX XPG4 standard and partially does its own 
thing (which was later mostly backimplemented into the SUS issue 6).  If you 
find somethings useful in the way of an introduction, post it here.
