The following is an excerpt from NLHE: Theory and Practice

"Concept No. 8: Other things being equal, when you're in one of the blinds your preflop raises should generally be a little larger than normal. There are three reasons why you should usually raise larger amounts from the blinds:

1. Since you'll have to play the rest of the hand out of position, you don't mind winning the pot immediately as much as you might if you could play in position. Put another way, when you raise in position, often you'll want your opponents to call you. When you raise from the blinds, you'll want calls less often, and when you do want calls, you won't want them as strongly.

2. When your opponents call your raise with position and a weaker hand, often they'll be relying on implied odds to make their calls profitable. Big raises cut down your opponents' implied odds.

3. Out of position it is more important that you can narrow down your opponents' possible hands. You can't do that with a small raise."
