After a little google searching, "Brotherhood of Man" has been adopted by many different groups and philosophical outlooks, all the way from Freemasons to Marxists.  I still stand by my contention that it's from the 18th century, however.

It's also one of the famous lines in the chorus  Beethoven's 9th symphony: "Alle Menschen werden Brüder" -" All men become brothers" which is from Friedrich Schiller's poem "Ode an die Freude". And Schiller was indeed a glowing admirer of Rousseau and his work.
