Abstract : In this paper we obtain some results concerning Jordan derivations and Jordan left derivations mapping into the Jacobson radical. Our main result is the following: Let $d$ be a Jordan derivation (resp. Jordan left derivation) of a complex Banach algebra $A$. If $d^{2}(x)=0$ for all $x \in A$, then we have $d(A) \subseteq rad(A)$
Keywords : Banach algebra, Jordan derivation, Jordan left derivation, Jacobson radical
