Some protagonist face off against corrupt governments, illnesses, poverty, etc. and these are abstract antagonists. There called that because they don't take on a physical form. Basically to find out if you have an abstract antagonist or to make sure your getting it right you can just follow this this. If the antagonist doesn't have a physical form, is not a living person/ animal/ or entity you have an abstract antagonist. An easier way to think about it is if your protagonist cant physically kick or punch or maim or harm your antagonist then it is probably abstract.
