Officeholders

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 executive council 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).{{cite news|url=https://plisi.org/histori/krejt-kryeministrat-kosoves/|title=Krejt kryeministrat e Kosovës|trans-title=All the prime ministers of Kosovo|language=sq|website=Plisi.org|date=6 August 2019}}{{cite news|url=https://www.botasot.info/aktuale-lajme/1542278/kryeministrat-e-kosoves-qe-nga-viti-1945-e-deri-me-sot/|title=Kryeministrat e Kosovës që nga viti 1945 e deri më sot|trans-title=Prime Ministers of Kosovo since 1945 until today|language=sq|publisher=Bota Sot|date=23 March 2021}}{{cite web|url=https://www.worldstatesmen.org/Kosovo.html#Kosovo-prov|title=Socialist Autonomous Province of Kosovo (from 1990, Autonomous Province of Kosovo-Metohija)|website=Worldstatesmen.org|access-date=15 June 2024}}
