It depends on the people or-- group of people, specifically, but you're probably most concerned with the French? Politically speaking, France is currently defined as 'a semi-presidential representative democratic republic'.

In terms of more individualized rights, they have [and here it's obvious he's quoting things by memory,] 'the right to assemble freely, to belong to political parties and trade unions. To choose their representatives in Parliament and the French president. The right to express themselves, including by demonstrating in the streets. The right to information sustained by a free and uncensored press. The right to a free education, paid for by the state.'
