The president of the Presidency of the Socialist Autonomous Province of Kosovo (Serbo-Croatian: Predsjednik Predsjedništva Socijalističke Autonomne Pokrajine Kosovo, Albanian: Kryetari i Kryesisë së Krahinës Socialiste Autonome të Kosovës) existed from its establishment in 1945 until its dissolution in 1991.[1]

Officeholders

[edit]

In the Socialist Autonomous Province of Kosovo, which was at the time one of the two socialist autonomous provinces of the Socialist Republic of Serbia and one of the federal units of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, a single-party system was in place. During this time there were eight heads of state, all from the ranks of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia (SKJ). The federal party was organized into six sub-organizations - the republic parties, one for each of the six federal republics. Kosovan politicians and presidents of the presidency of the period were members of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia through their membership in the League of Communists of Kosovo (SKK), the Kosovan part of the federal party (as was respectively the case with all Yugoslav politicians).[2]
