Does this really happen, though? If you look at incidence rates for violence, prostitution, alcoholism, and other anti-social behaviors, misbehavior tends to decrease over time (in line with urbanization/modernization). Small communities may be better at incentivizing the perception of good behavior, but it's debatable whether this leads to better outcomes, or if it just teaches community members how to hide or ignore transgressions.
