Since the publication of ''[[Scouting for Boys]]'' in 1908, all Scouts and Guides around the world have taken a [[Scout Promise]] or oath to live up to ideals of the movement, and subscribed to a '''Scout Law'''.  The wording of the promise and law have varied slightly over time and from Scouting organization to Scouting Organization.
