Now that we have outlined the context and personal experiences of Rothbard, we have the necessary basis for examining his work and thought. First, it should be emphasized that Rothbard, although deeply influenced by Mises and the Austrian school, combined these influences with the Old Right culture to which he was deeply attached and with the natural law tradition that permeated the American classical liberal culture of the founding fathers and Thomas Jefferson. From all this, as we will see, emerges a reworking and, in part, a revision of the Austrian school that is particularly original.
