[Sidenote: On Enemy Character in general.]
§ 87. Since the belligerents, for the realisation of the purpose of war,
are entitled to many kinds of measures against enemy persons and enemy
property, the question must be settled as to what persons and what
property are vested with enemy character. Now it is, generally speaking,
correct to say that, whereas the subjects of the belligerents and the
property of such subjects bear enemy character, the subjects of neutral
States and the property of such subjects do not bear enemy character.
This rule has, however, important exceptions. For under certain
circumstances and conditions enemy persons and property of enemy
subjects may not bear, and, on the other hand, subjects of neutral
States and their property may bear, enemy character. And it is even
possible that a subject of a belligerent may for some parts bear enemy
character as between himself and his home State.
