Infringement damage compensation refers to the way of civil liability that the perpetrator should bear according to law in the form of payment of money or material objects for the damage to the property, person and spirit of others caused by infringement. Tort damage compensation is a very common and frequent form of civil liability. Because of its complicated contents, the compensation for damages is also a legal system, which is composed of compensation principles, compensation scope, compensation methods and other systems. Tort damages have the following characteristics:
 1. The way of bearing the liability for damages is based on the premise of causing property or personal damage to others. In various forms of liability, the assumption of the responsibilities of stopping infringement, removing obstruction and eliminating influence cannot be based on the premise of actually causing property or personal damage to others. As long as the victim's property, personal or other rights are infringed, threatened or obstructed, the actor can be required to assume these responsibilities; The responsibility of returning property, restoring the original state, repairing, redoing and replacing the property is only based on the premise that the property is infringed; Eliminating influence, rehabilitating reputation and apologizing are usually assumed only on the premise that personal rights or intellectual property rights are infringed. The assumption of liability for damages can be based on the premise that other people's property is damaged, or that other people's person is damaged.
 2. Damages are based on the payment of money or property in kind. In other forms of liability, the infringer does not have the problem of paying money to the victim; Even if the compensation is made with physical property, the property shall also belong to the infringer. In the form of responsibility for returning property, the property returned by the infringer to the victim originally belongs to the victim's ownership or management.
