Dealbanisation (Albanian: de-shqiptarizim) is a term used in historiographical and political discourse as the process of denationalisation of Albanians which was initiated by the Kingdom of Serbia after the annexation of Kosovo in 1912.[1] The process continued to 1918 and was adopted by the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes against the Albanian populations of Kosovo between 1918 and 1938.[2] The Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes resisted the Kachak movement and used Serbo-Montenegrin colonisers in an attempt to "de-albanize" areas inhabited by Albanians.[3] There is an integration process among Albanian immigrants in Greece that can be perhaps termed as 'de-albanisation'.[4]

During the disintegration of Yugoslavia, the term entered again in political discourse.[5] In 1989, Rugova opposed the "de-albanization" of Kosovo.[6] In 1992, the Serbian Radical Party recommended that Kosovo be "de-albanized".[7] After the riots in Kosovo, Slobodan Milošević implemented a policy of "dealbanization" similar to those in 1918.[8][9] In political discourse in Serbia, the call for dealbanizacija as it became an unrealistic goal after the Kosovo War gave way to a more pragmatic - as viewed from the Serbian perspective - call for federalizacija (the political attempt to keep Kosovo Albanians within a Serbia with broad autonomy) across the political spectrum.[10]

In Albanian historiography the term is also used in order to refer to the process of "dealbanization" of Albanian historical figures in Balkan historiography.[11]

In post-Yugoslav countries with significant Albanian minorities, the term is used in a form which alludes to the ethnic slur Šiptar, dešiptarizacija, as a nationalist slogan directed against Albanian communities. The ultras of FK Vardar, one of the biggest clubs in North Macedonia have frequently unveiled a banner with the call for dešiptarizacija during the club's football matches. In 2017, such an incident was followed by an attack against Albanian youngsters who were walking outside the stadium.[12]
