It's a quite straightforward dichotomy between their methodology and general cosmological outlooks.
Mises and Rothbards outlook on man aligns with the Aristotelian view of the universe and nature as fixed and unchanging; praxeology is Aristotelian to the core.
The dialectic approach to economics, as advanced by Marx, sees the universe as an ongoing process of creation and man himself changes and develops the very fundamental laws of the universe and himself by his powers of cognition by developing the productive forces and revolutionizing the historical modes of production.

If Socrates is Smith, then Plato is Friedman, and Aristotle is Hayek.

So... Hayek
