An enemy or foe is a relativist term for an entity that is seen as forcefully adverse or threatening. The term "enemy" serves the social function of designating a particular entity as a threat.

The term is usually used within the greater context of war, to denote an opposing group and the individuals within as threats to one's own national, ethic, or political group. To individuals within the threatened group, the "enemy" concept is an amorphous personification of both a threat to one's collective social group, as well as a personal threat to oneself.

The general ideological mechanism by which particular threats are determined is called marginalization. The characterization of an individual or group as an enemy is called demonization. The propagation of demonization is a major aspect of propaganda.
