	Leoluca Orlando (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Leoluca Orlando (* 1947 in Palermo, Italien) war - mit kurzer Unterbrechung - von 1985 bis 2000 Bürgermeister von Palermo und wurde durch seinen Kampf gegen die Mafia bekannt.
		Leoluca Orlando studierte Rechtswissenschaft in Palermo und Heidelberg und war dann in Palermo als Anwalt und als Professor tätig.
		In einem „Kampf der Frauen“ fand Orlando ungewöhnlich breite Unterstützung in der (weiblichen) Bevölkerung - Palermitanerinnen boten ihm an, dass ihre eigenen Kinder ihn auf jeder Autofahrt begleiten sollten, damit die Mafia wisse, dass ein Bombenanschlag auf seinen Wagen auch unschuldige Kinder träfe.

		ORLANDO'S initiation into the world of crime-busting came in 1980 when, as a young law professor from an aristocratic family, he served as a close adviser to Piersanti Mattarella, president of the region, or state, of Sicily.
		But Orlando's alliances with the center-left aggravated the hierarchy of his party, and his drive to push organized crime out of public works was thwarted.
		Months later, Orlando was swept back into office with 75 percent of the vote in Italy's first direct mayoral election.

		As mayor, Orlando fought the Mafia not only through law-enforcement methods but by restoring the very institutions of civil society-the private, voluntary organizations and relationships that create a culture-that the Mafia had destroyed during its rise to power.
		The Mafia even took over Palermo's educational system, says Orlando, "not only because it knew that maintaining ignorance among the people was the key to its power, but also because there was money to be made" by renting space to the government for the city's schools.
		Orlando was despondent, but when the fallen president's brother and other associates urged him to run for the Palermo municipal council, he ran successfully, and was elected mayor by the town council in 1985.
