Abstract:
In the wake of the First and Second World Wars, an extensive system of social compensation and assistance for the war disabled evolved in Germany and later on also for civilians. Depending on the origin of the disability, the benefits are composed either of revenues and pensions and/or tax reductions and nonfinancial assistance. In any case, the extent of these benefits depends on the grade of disability (GdB/MdE) determined by medical examination and on expert opinions in accordance with detailed legal regulations.
