Rights of Man is written by Thomas Maine and the enlightenment idea that appears to influence Paine in this passage is Humanity is progressing out of bondage towards liberty.

Explanation:

Maine specifies that political revolution is necessary if the government fails to safeguard the interests of the people.  He also claims that people are born with some inseparable rights and they  are liberty, property and security.
