What are the advantages of MVC over 3-Layer Architecture in web applications?

MVC is all about seperation of concerns - but deals with specifics in that the View is loosely-coupled to the model and controller; with 3-tier this is not explicitly required.

They're not competing idealogies, MVC traditionally deals with the presentation layer of an app, i.e. One of the three layers.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
