Well, it was definitely present in the USA in 1911: > "Bread and Roses" is a political slogan as well as the name of an associated poem and song. It originated from a speech given by American women's suffrage activist Helen Todd; a line in that speech about "bread for all, and roses too" > What the woman who labors wants is the right to live, not simply exist – the right to life as the rich woman has the right to life, and the sun and music and art. You have nothing that the humblest worker has not a right to have also. The worker must have bread, but she must have roses, too. https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Bread_and_Roses https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Bread_and_Roses Or in the 1930s when Keynes was speculating that advances in productivity and machinery would reduce the work week to 15 hours: https://www.npr.org/2015/08/13/432122637/keynes-predicted-we-would-be-working-15-hour-weeks-why-was-he-so-wrong https://www.npr.org/2015/08/13/432122637/keynes-predicted-we... Or on 1906 in Our Riches on Kropotkin's The Conquest of Bread: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgrpwwN8zM0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgrpwwN8zM0 So that covers the begining of the 1900s on the USA, England, and Russia. Other more direct examples would Paul Lafrague's 1883 The Right to be Lazy or the 8-hour campaign that got us the shorter 8-hour work day we have today.
