daughters of the authors (only if they are not married)

Another national peculiarity can be found in Chile where the term of [copyright] protection can be computed from the date of death of the last surviving person amongst the wife and daughters of the authors (only if they are not married). This strange (and not genderneutral) provision might be soon abrogated by a Bill currently in discussion.
